Study Notes
Antiterrorism Awareness Key Concepts
- Understanding threats requires evaluating how sophisticated, active, and violent terrorist groups are.
- Predictability in behavior increases vulnerability to terrorist attacks; it is an irrelevant factor in avoiding victimization.
Force Protection Conditions
- Condition DELTA signifies the highest level of protection for military bases.
National Advisory Alerts
- Alerts from the National Terrorism Advisory System specifically pertain to the U.S. and its territories.
Themes and Methods
- "Counter-surveillance" is not one of the key themes in Antiterrorism Level I training.
- Breaking and entering for theft is not considered a method of surveillance used by terrorists.
Insider Threats and Indicators
- Those with access to secure locations may still pose a threat.
- A reasonable disagreement with U.S. policy is not a warning sign for potential insider threats.
Active Shooter Response
- Active resistance is not advised during an active shooter incident.
- Key precaution includes remaining low and still during a hostage rescue attempt, and not assisting rescue teams due to safety concerns.
Biological Attacks
- Early symptoms of biological attacks may mimic common illnesses, requiring vigilant observation.
Teamwork in Security
- Security is a collaborative effort; everyone shares responsibility for maintaining a safe environment.
Surveillance Techniques
- Surveillance can utilize both stationary and mobile methods; monitoring internet acquaintances is necessary for security.

Hotel Security
- Room invasions present a significant threat in U.S. hotels; prioritizing security features like solid doors and functioning locks is essential.
Hostage Situations and IEDs
