Devin Arnold (Partner-Atlanta, GA) recently appeared on the panel "Crime Prevention Workshop: Strategies for Reducing Risk” at the Global Security Exchange (GSX) 2026 Convention, held September 14 ‒ 16, 2026, at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Georgia. Presenting alongside Charles Ahmad of Group Nine Risk Consulting, Jeff Putnam of Lowers & Associates, and Julie Marzheuser of Chick-fil-A, the workshop focused on practical strategies to reduce organizational risk through systematic risk assessment, situational crime prevention, and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED). The panel addressed how organizations can protect people, property, information, and reputation by identifying assets, threats, and vulnerabilities, then applying layered security methodologies ‒ including deterrence, detection, delay, denial, and response measures. Using real-world scenarios involving property crime, unauthorized access, package theft, and workplace safety concerns, the panelists guided attendees through actionable frameworks for evaluating and mitigating security risks in commercial, residential, and retail environments.
