Course Overview
A control on armed group threat management that is never exercised is an assumption, not a defence. The value of preparation for threat management is only visible on the day it is needed. Where this aspect of corporate security practice is measured, it improves; where it is only discussed, it drifts. The content is relevant to those who own armed group threat management and to those who are held accountable for its results. They acquire practical criteria for judging when the corporate security practice discipline is working and when it is only appearing to. What blocks progress on threat management is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. The course gives participants a defensible structure for armed group threat management and the judgement to adapt it. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make threat management hard in practice. The course ends by identifying what the participant will stop doing to make the practice within corporate security practice sustainable.
