Wireless Jammers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week Jake Voll brings the topic of wireless jammers to the room, and the room has stories to tell. A few years ago this sounded like a movie plot or a theoretical problem. Now police and federal prosecutors are describing it in burglary investigations, and the dealers on this call have lived it. The uncomfortable part is that nothing on the shelf today would have stopped either one. Encryption stops spoofing, not jamming. Frequency hopping and hardwired sensors buy you a local alarm at best

Read excerpt
This week, Jake Voll sits down with Randi Elrad of Crime Prevention Security Systems for a 51-year lesson on what it actually takes to build a workplace people don't want to leave, and why the trophies on the wall are the byproduct, not the point.
