Study Notes
Antiterrorism Awareness Training Key Concepts
- Understanding terrorist threats involves assessing the sophistication, activity level, violence, predictability, and local awareness regarding terrorist groups.
- Factors that do not assist in avoiding victimization include predictability; location, opportunity, and association are significant risk factors.
Force Protection
- Force Protection Condition (FPCON) DELTA indicates the highest level of security measures implemented at a base or installation.
- The system classifies security conditions from Alpha (least) to Delta (most).
National Terrorism Advisory System
- Alerts issued from this system are exclusive to the United States and its possessions.
Antiterrorism Themes
- Key themes include reporting and responding to threats and anticipating potential risks.
- Collections and counter-surveillance do not constitute Antiterrorism Level I themes.
Surveillance Methods
- Common terrorist methods for surveillance consist of technical and stationary surveillance, casual questioning, while breaking and entering for theft is not utilized as a method of surveillance.
Insider Threats
- Individuals with access to installations can still pose threats, highlighting the need for vigilance.
- Indicators of an insider threat may include abnormal behaviors and the presence of unauthorized weapons.
Responding to Threats
- In active shooter situations, lying down is not the immediate correct response; hiding or barricading is preferred.
- During a hostage rescue, individuals should remain calm and low, not attempt to assist team members, and follow their instructions.
Biological Attacks
- Symptoms from biological attacks may mimic common illnesses; awareness is critical.
Collaboration in Security
- Security is a collective responsibility shared by everyone on an installation.
Vehicle and Home Safety
- Best practices for vehicle security include maintaining a reliable vehicle; Wi-Fi capability and air bags are not crucial security features.
- Home security can be improved through changing locks, securing windows, and outdoor lighting enhancements. Hiding keys outside compromises security.
Hotel and Travel Security
- Key security features in hotels do not include lockboxes or safes; one should inspect solid doors and functioning locks upon arrival.
- Room invasions are a notable security concern in domestic hotels.
Risk Mitigation
- Avoid handling potential surveillance situations personally; report suspicions to authorities.
- Recognizing signs of instability can assist in early identification of insider threats.
General Security Awareness
- IEDs may be disguised and can appear inconspicuous; thus, constant environmental awareness is necessary.
- Security concerns extend to various locations, including tourist sites, not strictly military-related sites.### Antiterrorism Scenario Training Key Points
- Internet acquaintances can present security risks and should be monitored.
- Shared responsibility for security falls on everyone within an installation.
- Antiterrorism Level I themes exclude "Collections" and "Counter-surveillance."
- It is advisable to travel with a cell phone for safety and accessibility.
- Factors to avoid becoming a victim of a terrorist attack include opportunity, location, and association.
- Early symptoms of biological attacks may resemble common diseases, highlighting the importance of vigilance.
- Hostage situations are particularly dangerous during the initial moments of the incident.
- Room invasions represent a significant security concern for hotels in the United States.
- In an active shooter scenario, lying on the ground is not recommended as an immediate response.
- Immediate attempts to subdue hijackers during a skyjacking are advised against.
- Maintaining a vehicle properly is essential for both security and safety environments.
