Terrorism Risk Assessment

Security managers and the companies that employ them face a difficult task when considering the threat of terrorist attacks and the risks that they engender. Trying to anticipate what is coming next can be tricky and is complicated by the fact that potential attackers are both unpredictable and often ingenious in their planning and conduct of operations. Risk assessment is fundamental to effective security management across all departments and functions of a business, and can be used effectively when attempting to plan protection against terrorism. ‘Continuity Central’ recently published a short article concerning terrorism risk and mitigation here: http://www.continuitycentral.com/feature0587.htm

ARC covers risk assessment in depth on many of our courses and workshops, in addition to specific sessions on terrorism risks. Contact Janet for further details or visit our website at http://www.arc-tc.com/.
