The book offers approaches based on scientific insights, mainly addressing terrorist attacks. Moreover, the use of innovative techniques is explained, including Bayesian networks, game-theory and petri-networks. Dealing with economic parameters and constraints and calculating the costs and benefits of security measures are also included. The book will be of interest to security (and safety) scientists, security managers and the public at large. Discusses how to achieve inherent physical security using a scientific approachExplores how to take adequate add-on physical security measuresCovers risk assessment tools and applications for practical use in the industryDemonstrates how to optimize security decisions using security models and approachesConsiders economic aspects of security decisions
