  1. Thinking Like A Terrorist:Technique for Teaching Adults Homeland Security Daniel C. Goodrich

  2. Can you identify these items?

  3. What are we trying to accomplish • Increase individual situational awareness • Develop skill sets for personnel in other disciplines who can apply their problem solving abilities to help improve security • Develop champions throughout institutions who can assist their organization’s security • Change people’s perspectives and behavior

  4. Current training strategy • Talk about threats in vague terms. “It’s all right out there on the internet on how to do it.” • Does not explain how a perpetrator goes through the planning, surveillance, accumulating resources, rehearsals, and execution • Offer little/no information on the other side’s limits of applying tactical knowledge. “Superman effect”

  5. Another way • Focus on how a perpetrator would carry out an attack • Look for the vulnerabilities in carrying out that attack • Treat the technology/tools/tactics as neutral • Introduce security as using the perpetrator’s thought process but in terms of how to slow down/recognize/compromise/deter the attack

  6. Examples of Neutral Items • Similarities between alarm systems and switches for bombs • Sabotage instructions written for resistance groups by state actors • Review of “softer” groups (ELF and ALF) material available on the internet • Law enforcement training materials and memos • Reading “backwards”
