Patrolling involves moving through an area regularly to observe, inspect, and provide security. The main purposes of patrolling are to protect people, property, and information by serving as a visible deterrent against crime. Effective patrolling uses all five senses to check for unusual conditions, sounds, odors, or other potential issues. It is important to vary patrol routes and patterns unpredictably and to thoroughly document any issues found.
