Both of these things can be a danger.

The number one thing that you have to be able to do in this kind of job is carefully observe everything that's going on.

All of the senses can help you out in more ways than you might realize, and the human body is a sensory mechanism that can capture a heck of a lot more than any electronic device, no matter how sophisticated, because of the holistic perspective all of the senses give to us.

There are plenty of people who can do this kind of work. One of the first professionals who many people think of would be police officers. Other than that, it is common to hire individuals who perhaps had previous dealings with criminals or else just have very neutral features or fit certain characteristics that they are looking for in that particular case.
