Applied risk analysis for guiding homeland security policy and decisions
1 online resource (xxxvi, 492 pages) : illustrations (chiefly color), color maps.
"Risk analysis is the process of defining and analyzing various dangers to individuals, businesses, and government agencies posed by potential adverse events. Risk analysis is often divided into two parts: risk assessment, which includes identifying, evaluating, and measuring the probability and severity of risks; and risk management, which involves deciding what to do about the risks. In the context of government agencies, defending a country against threats raises new challenges and opportunities for risk analysis. It is both vital and challenging to effectively assess and manage risks to national security, and as such, government agencies require cutting-edge risk analytic techniques to inform a range of prioritization, strategy, and policy decisions"--
