ACTIVE SHOOTER PREVENTION
Prevention Starts
Before Violence Begins.
Protecting people requires more than reacting after an incident starts. Effective active shooter prevention brings together people, planning, technology, communication, and training long before an emergency occurs.
IMRON supports a prevention-first approach through security technology, education, industry collaboration, and its relationship with the Active Shooter Prevention Project.
PREVENTION FIRST
People.
Process.
Technology.
A layered approach designed to identify risk earlier, improve readiness, and strengthen response.
ACTIVE SHOOTER PREVENTION
We Need to Talk About
What Happens Before.
Much of the conversation around active shooters begins after the shooting has already started. We believe the conversation needs to begin much earlier.
Prevention requires bringing together behavioral awareness, threat assessment, physical security, technology, training, communication, and experienced professionals.
The objective isn't simply to respond better. The objective is to prevent the incident whenever possible.
A DIFFERENT APPROACH
Response Matters.
Prevention Comes First.
Traditional emergency planning often focuses on what to do once violence has already begun. A prevention-first strategy looks earlier in the timeline.
The goal is to create layers of awareness, reporting, assessment, communication, security technology, training, and response so organizations are better positioned to identify concerns and act before an incident escalates.
EARLIER
Move Left on the Timeline.
Prevention focuses attention on the period before an emergency becomes an active incident.
HUMAN
People Are Part of the System.
Technology supports prevention, but human awareness, communication, judgment, and leadership remain critical.
CONNECTED
Layers Work Better Together.
Physical security, communication, reporting, training, policy, and response should operate as a coordinated system.
THE ASPP P.R.O. MODEL™
Prevention. Response. Options.
The Active Shooter Prevention Project's P.R.O. Model™ organizes active shooter prevention around three complementary disciplines, with prevention intentionally first.
P
PREVENTION
Act Before an Incident Begins.
Prevention focuses on recognizing concerns, encouraging appropriate reporting, assessing risk, and creating opportunities for intervention before violence occurs.
FIRST PRIORITY
R
RESPONSE
Be Ready When Seconds Matter.
When prevention does not stop a threat, coordinated detection, communication, security systems, trained personnel, and first responders become essential.
PREPARED RESPONSE
O
OPTIONS
No One Solution Fits Every Environment.
Organizations differ. Effective programs consider the people, facility, risks, resources, technologies, and procedures appropriate for each environment.

LAYERED SECURITY
Prevention Is Not
a Single Product.
There is no camera, access-control system, policy, training course, or software platform that can solve every security problem by itself.
Strong prevention programs bring multiple disciplines together, creating layers that support one another before, during, and after a potential incident.
01
Awareness & Reporting
Create ways for concerns to be recognized, communicated, and evaluated appropriately.
02
Threat Assessment
Give trained teams the information and process needed to assess potential risks.
03
Physical Security
Use access control, video, intrusion detection, communication, and other technologies as part of a layered strategy.
04
Training & Preparedness
Help leadership and personnel understand their roles before an emergency occurs.
05
Coordinated Response
Improve communication and situational awareness when intervention or emergency response becomes necessary.
TECHNOLOGY AS A FORCE MULTIPLIER
Connect Security Systems
Before You Need Them.
Technology works best when information and systems are connected, giving operators a clearer picture of what is happening and enabling faster, more coordinated action.
Access Control
Control and monitor doors, credentials, lockdown functions, and access events.
Video & Analytics
Bring video, events, and analytics into the operator's situational-awareness workflow.
Alarms & Intrusion
Surface security events quickly and connect alarm activity with the systems needed to investigate.
Communication
Support workflows that help move information to the right people when attention or action is required.
Automation
Connect security events to predefined workflows so operators can respond more consistently.
AI & Intelligence
Use analytics and AI to help operators identify relevant activity and make information easier to understand.

Build a More Prepared
Security Environment.
Every organization is different. A strong program starts by understanding the people, facility, risks, processes, and technology already in place — then identifying where the layers can be improved.
