Security has become an ever increasing concern for travellers over the past few years. This is especially true for business travellers who not only are at risk more often because of the frequency of their business trips, but who can also be enticing targets for kidnapping or other threats.
Effective security precautions for the business traveller require a continuous and conscious awareness of one's environment as well as the need to exercise prudence, judgment, and common sense. This is particularly needed where the traveler must adapt to new cultures, customs, and laws. Personal security cannot be trusted to others; it is a responsibility of each person to be aware of danger signals and how to handle them.
Here are some tips to follow as you prepare for your trip. While the focus is on international travel, many of these tips are equally applicable to travel within the United States.
