When searching a person as a security officer, you should look for any items that could pose a threat to the safety and security of the area or individuals within it. This could include weapons, explosives, drugs, or any other prohibited items. You should also be observant of any suspicious behavior or signs of deception, such as nervousness, avoidance of eye contact, or inconsistencies in their story. It is important to conduct the search in a respectful and professional manner, following proper procedures and protocols to ensure the safety of everyone involved.
