Transportation infrastructure continues to be a target of terrorist organizations around the world. The reason is simple – utility.
Terrorists understand that particularly since 9/11, the investment into the protection of transportation modalities continues to be enormous. To mount a successful attack could result in a significant loss of life, disruption of critical infrastructure and most important, an undermining of public confidence in the security apparatus designed to protect them.
Our transportation security strategies are designed to:
- Identify and recommend interdisciplinary countermeasures to threats to the diverse transportation modalities.
- Identify vulnerabilities in the transportation system which may present potential risk or liability resultant from a terrorist attack to a specific airport, as a result of a lack of due diligence.
- Provide modeling simulation tools to enhance security and emergency preparedness planning, training and exercises.
In accordance with the Department of Homeland Security National Infrastructure Protection Plan, and the “double-loop learning process,” design a sustainable system capable of:
- Establishing security objectives
- Identifying organizational assets, systems, networks and functions
- Assessing risk (Consequences, Vulnerabilities, and Threats)
- Prioritize intelligence responses
- Implement protective programs
- Measure effectiveness
- Engage double-loop learning by repeating the process
