Overview
Proactive security requires thinking outside the box, from the adversary’s perspective. Learn how predictive profiling accomplishes this by assessing the threat from the context of criminal and/or terrorist modus operandi. Gain the ability to turn your “gut feeling” into a useful security tool. And once a threat has been identified, learn how to counter a potential adversary with security questioning – the only chance to put a criminal on the defensive as he tries to protect his cover story.
Participants will learn how to proactively prevent, deter, and respond to criminal and terrorist threats. The goal is to improve threat prevention capabilities.
The seminar is in English language.
Target group: Security officers / employees, Security Directors and Managers
