New Brunswick Security Guard License Practice Exam

A security guard's main objective while patrolling a property or premises is to establish a visible presence in order to deter potential offenders. This helps to prevent theft, vandalism, and other crimes from occurring on the property. Options B, C, and D do not address the primary purpose of patrolling, and are therefore incorrect. Being visible and alert helps to ensure the safety and security of the property and its occupants. Additionally, complying with notebook protocol and showing the client they are getting their money's worth can be secondary objectives but should not be the main focus of patrolling.
