Abstract

Abstract A summary of improvement measures for security services is as shown below. Such summary is concluded based on studies regarding history, success/failure cases, issues/improvement requirements of security services of Korea. First, It is known that Korea is the only country without the private investigation service among member countries of OECD. It is deemed necessary to change incorrect recognition to regard the private investigation service as an errand center or a private detective agency and to see it as one of business fields. It is also required to establish the specialized curriculum related to the private investigation service. Second, The term "security service" is preferred by students of the Department of Security Services and ordinary people. It is deemed necessary to clearly define the term "Department of Security Services" and "security service." It also includes extending Departments of Security Services and research institutes specializing in security services. Third, Currently, the Police Assigned for Special Guard Act and the Security Services Industry Act are separated, and this causes negative effects such as inefficient security service performance, inconsistent training, and separated control tower. Therefore, it is required to integrate or unify two systems: the system on police assigned for special guard and the system on the security services industry. Fourth, Even those who are majored in Security Science at universities are failing to obtain recognition from the society. In this situation, therefore, it is required to make them differentiated by assigning licenses in accordance with their educational backgrounds, by integrating bodies to control overall licensing system, and by establishing training programs. Fifth, A security guard has unsatisfactory foundation in the society as a professional occupation. It is thereby necessary to unify training programs on security services by enhancing consistency in training programs of the Presidential Security Service, by preparing for well-organized training curriculums, and by utilizing external experts. Sixth, The security services industry is growing as the promising industry in the 21st century in many countries including developed countries. This industry is beneficial in that it helps to reduce budget of public security and prevents a lot of crimes, etc. The police should recognize the private security as a companion that can effectively cope with crimes and build reciprocal relations between public security and private security. Seventh, "Security service" is a specialized service that can change all the efforts into nothing with a single mistake. It thereby causes wider range of security service-related devices. It is very important in security activities to preliminary prevent loss of lives or damage to lives. Therefore, it is deemed necessary to upgrade security service devices to cutting edge devices. Eight, Security services of Korea are composed of five areas - guarded security, escort security, protection, electronic security, and special security. In order to satisfy needs of customers who are requesting various and high quality security services, rapidly-growing security services industry should adopt security services of developed countries, extend security services into wider area, and promote public safety.
