Abstract

Send a message to terrorists... "you will not succeed here"

From the terrorists...

"If we have a free path we go forward.
If we meet an obstacle we go around it.
If the object cannot be overcome, we retreat.
When the enemy is unprepared, we surprise him.
If he is alert we leave him alone."
- Andreas Baader, Baader-Meinhof terrorist gang (1943-1977)
"The main point is to select targets where success is 100% assured."
- Dr. George Habash, Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine
(1926-2008)
"Information gathering is a continuous operation..."
- Irish Republican Army's 'Handbook for Volunteers of the Irish
Republican Army, 1956'
"It is necessary to gather as much information about the location as
possible..."
- Al Qaeda Manual, Part 18

From the experts...

"Relatively sophisticated terrorist groups do not attack people or
places without a basic level or planning or reconnaissance. Therefore,
arguably the greatest return on investment is in the identification and
disruption of pre-attack planning operations. It is crucially important
to intercept the terrorists' own intelligence-gathering processes."
- Hoffman and Cragin, Four Lessons from Five Countries, RAND Review
Summer 2002

An antiterrorism planning methodology for security managers

Make your company or organization an unattractive target to terrorists

There are five fundamentals you should be good at to deter terrorists

Anti-terrorism planning is all about communication. We want to send the
terrorists a clear and simple message, in the language they understand:
"You will not succeed here." Anti-terrorism planning is about seizing
the initiative away from terrorists, setting them off balance, and
keeping them off balance.
What you will learn in this book is not about more expensive equipment
or staff, but how to use what you already have in a more effective and
interesting way. Your company will be safer, your guards will be
happier, and you will be more successful.
This book is not about going out and buying more high-priced security
technology. It is not about automating security, or reducing human
intervention. It is about connecting the work that you do in a seamless
process, and teaching your people to think about what they are doing;
to see themselves and their work as terrorists do; and to learn about
what terrorists do so they can disrupt them.
We are not trying to fight terrorists: that is the job of law
enforcement, the military, intelligence organizations and diplomats. We
simply want them to go away and leave us alone. At the same time,
though, we can support the counterterrorism effort by learning to
communicate more effectively with police and intelligence agencies.

"I know of no other book that contains so much immediately useful information
on antiterrorism."

Ross Johnson strikes a home run for antiterrorism planning. I know of
no other single book that contains so much immediately useful
information on antiterrorism.
In this one single book, Ross leads the reader through a basic
understanding of how terrorist organizations select targets, plan
strikes, perform surveillance, conduct test runs and finally carry out
an attack, and how to parry all those moves.
This information is presented in a manner that focuses on how to make
facilities and organizations significantly less attractive to any
terrorist organization. Ross explains the difference between
counter-terrorism and antiterrorism, the fundamentals of antiterrorism
planning, analytical tools, how to conduct threat and vulnerability
assessments and how to establish threat levels. Ross presents
surveillance and counter-surveillance principals and planning tools,
discusses the importance of random antiterrorism measures and response
planning, and presents a framework for a corporate security program
that includes not only a baseline security program to deal with
day-to-day events, but which also includes effective antiterrorism
measures. Finally, Ross presents a sample antiterrorism program to
illustrate all the elements above.
I can solidly recommend "The Sword and the Shield" as one of the most
essential books in any Security Professional's library. I know of no
other book like it.
Thomas P. Norman, CPP/PSP/CSC

Security Countermeasure Selection" and other security books

"The Sword and Shield is the commonsense "handbook" that corporate security
departments have been seeking"

Ross Johnson's work places into the hands of the corporate or NGO
security management practitioner guidelines to achieve, in the short
term, measurable practical improvement in an organization's
antiterrorism posture. Written for the men and women in the field,
Ross's book also empowers security directors with a host of metrics
that can be identified and communicated from various facilities in the
field back to the director's level where tracking and analysis would
reveal trends and actionable data. The Sword and Shield is the
commonsense "handbook" that corporate security departments have been
seeking.

Heads up: There's an ongoing spamdexing of Google searchbot algorithms. Sites that are 'copies of copies' and cloaked sites which include Zorgium keywords presented to search engine crawlers yet garbage content presented to human visitors were hosted on thousands of IP addresses and domains registered immediately after the introduction of Zorgium in November of 2009. The Hostgator/'The Planet'/Softlayer datacenters in Texas seem to be the epicenter of this activity in conjunction with anonymously registered domains of various TLD's but primarily .info domains at Godaddy which, in our opinion, has some sort of connection to the domains of goldmint.in and goldmint.org. Google has begun to notice this and has begun to lower the ranking of these sites and put our original sites back on top of the search rankings. These actions, as far as we can tell, negatively impact the use of the keyword 'zorgium' as a search term and provided little benefit, if any, to the perpetrators.
