Abstract: Event security and safety professionals rely on training exercises and operational testing to establish readiness for complex incidents. Yet, limited empirical research has examined how practitioners define readiness, prioritize testing objectives, evaluate success, and implement lessons learned. Accordingly, this report summarizes key findings from a practitioner-focused survey (N = 45) and two focus groups (N = 12) about physical security preparations. This study sample includes event security professionals who work in a range of agency roles, venue sizes, event operation schedules, and event types.
