What is the minimum number of personnel each HSB will be validated for?

The minimum number of personnel each High Security Barrier (HSB) will be validated for is two. This standard is in place to ensure that multiple trained individuals are available to effectively manage the security and operational responsibilities associated with the HSB. Having at least two personnel ensures redundancy and allows for one person to maintain oversight while the other can manage or respond to any immediate security concerns. This approach enhances the overall security posture and ensures that all essential duties can be performed even if one individual is temporarily unavailable.

In high-security environments, having a minimum of two personnel is also crucial for adhering to safety protocols, facilitating communication, and providing mutual support in potentially high-stress situations. Therefore, validating an HSB for at least two personnel aligns with established best practices in security operations.
