Conducting Prison Security Audits: The past few decades have been characterized by rapid growth in prison construction and an accelerated evolution in prison and jail design. Perimeter barriers, locking systems, video and communication technology, and alert systems have all significantly improved. These improvements have resulted in more efficient, effective operations and enhanced safety of staff, inmates, and the community. Good sightlines integrated with sound security hardware and reliable technology have become the hallmarks of efficient, safe, secure, and humane correctional housing. Such enhancements balance cost-effectiveness, ease of maintenance, efficient use of staff resources, and significant improvements over past prison designs
