Security should view a suspicious package as

  1. An unknown object that should not be touched or moved

  2. An unknown object that should be scanned to know the content

  3. An unknown object that should be taken to loss and found

  4. An unknown object that should not be taken serious

The correct answer is: An unknown object that should not be touched or moved

The correct response to a suspicious package in a security context is to view it as an unknown object that should not be touched or moved. This is because it poses a potential risk, such as the possibility of it containing hazardous substances or being an explosive device. Therefore, by not touching or moving it, the security personnel can ensure they are maintaining their own safety and the safety of others. They should also initiate established protocols, which typically involve getting people away from the vicinity of the suspicious package and notifying relevant authorities who are trained to handle such situations. The authorities will then assess and handle the package as appropriate.
