Personal Preferences
Depends on what your like and can afford. I personally stick with 10 inch boots as they are versatile and are the standard for BDU's or cargo uniform pants. I would listen to the poster who said buy a cheap pair first.
Having sped hundreds of newbies (2000 Olympics was bad enough) to tell them to get a pair of cheap BLACK hiking boots and some good inners soles from K-mart has paid off to those who listen. The number of "head wobblers" who have turned up in dress shoes (like your Penny Loafers) to do a 12 hour shift in the rain, is pathetic. Their culture is not to spend a $0.01 on anything not provided by the cmopany and then complain of being wet or tired 2 hours into a shift. Perhaps you have some hiking boots you could dye black for now ?
If I had $10.00 for every shift I rolled my ankle and was saved by my high boots I would be alot richer. Ok it saves on swelling until you get home but it is the same as bandaging a sprain.

Buy a cheap pair, first. If you haven't quite 'started' security yet, never know if you're even going to like it.

Personally I like 6"-8" boots, as they give good support to the ankles

Although Security Consultant's coment was tongue in check, there is some truth to it. Where do you work. If you work at a muddy construction site site then you will want something tall. If you are in an office setting a pair of uniform oxfords would be fine. Personally I like 6"-8" boots, as they give good support to the ankles.

Could depend on how high or deep the doodo is. Welcome to the site.
I know you all were thinking that.
