This webinar identifies the ability of terrorist organizations to conduct a chemical or biological attack in populated areas. It will cover the mechanism of action, accessibility, delivery, and potential results of a chemical or biological agent. Current laws and regulations are not sufficient to prevent terrorists from producing a large-scale chemical or biological attack. The presenters will use case studies and empirical data to show the simplicity of creating a delivery system that can produce a mass casualty event and address planning considerations for preventing such an attack.  

The participants will be able to:

• Describe the simplicity of executing a mass casualty event
• Communicate the effect of such an attack, including the effects on the Emergency Medical System
• Mitigate factors leading to such an event

The second of a three-part series, this webinar from the ASIS Crime Prevention Council seeks to help participants learn best practice methodologies and how to apply them to their security culture.  Webinar series presenters include council members with unique expertise in crime prevention as well guest speakers from government agencies involved in intelligence and counterintelligence.

This webinar will present authentic case scenarios that illustrate the concepts underlying insider threat management and implementation best practices.  Participants will learn why and how insider threat policies must be updated to create a new crime prevention culture in their organizations.  The importance of balancing transparency with privacy concerns and how to accomplish this cultural shift will be discussed.  Finally, the role technology plays in an insider threat prevention strategy and how to manage information (political, economic, cultural, social) is reviewed through potential threat scenarios.

This webinar lays the foundation for the related webinar scheduled for October 24 and we encourage participants to register for both. 

Participants will be able to:

• Describe insider threat management and implementation best practices.
• Achieve the cultural shifts necessary organization-wide to support a successful insider threat program.
• Better manage and secure information through useful technological tools.

Within the government facilities sector, there has been an increase in the number “smart” facilities – via construction, modernization, and legislation – that are intended to enhance energy management, create operational efficiencies, and enable remote accessibility for operators and managers. The internet-connected camera systems, access control systems, elevators, etc. at high-risk facilities have opened an alternate access point for hostile actors to carry out an attack. DHS’ Federal Protective Service (FPS) has incorporated a tiered approach to assessing the cyber and physical security risks to its facilities. In this session, FPS will provide an overview of the types of questions, analysis, and findings it has incorporated and generated from its cyber-physical security assessment methodology.

Participants will be able to:

• Distinguish the types of threats and vulnerabilities inherent in facility systems, such as cameras, elevators, access controls, etc. and discuss best practices among the security community
• Recognize the Federal Protective Service’s assessment methodology used to evaluate the cyber-physical security risks to its facilities
• Explain the cyber risks to facilities and recommendations on how to approach mitigation of those risks as presented by the Federal Protective Service

Many of today's Security Managers are tasked with securing the Enterprise while providing support to regulatory requirements. Security is often constrained by budget and/or political considerations. These restrictions can degrade the security department(s) ability to properly design and implement secure infrastructure throughout their organization. This program will provide an insight into physical security counter-measures that can actually place the enterprise at greater risk due to their vulnerability to cyber-attacks or hacking (interactive session), managing an effective enterprise physical key program in a compliance driven environment, and a case study on how Human Factors impact Enterprise security implementation.
