The Science and Technology of Counterterrorism: Measuring Physical and Electronic Security Risk
Autor Carl Youngen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 apr 2014
The Science and Technology of Counterterrorism teaches the reader how to think about terrorism risk, and evaluates terrorism scenarios and counterterrorism technologies with sophistication punctuated by humor. Both students and security professionals will significantly benefit from the risk assessment methodologies and guidance on appropriate counterterrorism measures contained within this book.
- Offers a simple but effective analytic framework to assess counterterrorism risk and realistic measures to address threats
- Provides the essential scientific principles and tools required for this analysis
- Explores the increasingly important relationship between physical and electronic risk in meaningful technical detail
- Evaluates technical security systems to illustrate specific risks using concrete examples
