STRAT | Mitigation and Prevention of a Rising Tide of Terror

There is a rising tide of terror in and environment where the events of October 7, 2023 changed everything.

They reference a long history of successful terrorism prevention efforts including one with unprecedented achievement in stopping deadly attacks on the U.S. West Coast. Further, they detail how a larger post-9/11 focus in public safety has become less ROI as pro forma box-checking and the malaise of bureaucratization has replaced attempts to do better in genuine measures of effectiveness.

The world is now seeing this new threat incur greater costs in protecting critical infrastructure, supply chains, workplaces, areas of assembly, and more. Listen to this edition for our experts take on strategies that have been successful in the past and will continue to be cost-effective into the future.
