Intelligence and anticipation: Issues in security, risk and crisis management

Abstract

This article deals with the way in which intelligence flows and other critical information can be embedded into a risk framework that will facilitate the early warning of emerging threat scenarios. That is, an organisation should be able to anticipate crisis triggers and know when a crisis situation will manifest itself. As an outcome, a conceptual framework that defines how to make sense of complex situations, datasets and real world anomalies is suggested. Copyright © 2007 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
