Protective Intelligence and Threat Management Analysis

Serious harm to leaders, staff and facilities is often preceded by warning signs that go unnoticed because no one is watching for them. This comprehensive programme builds protective intelligence capability, teaching teams to gather, assess and act on threat information before an attack occurs. Participants learn to run a threat assessment process, manage persons of concern and turn scattered signals into decisions that protect people across African organisations.

What you will be able to do

  • Explain how protective intelligence prevents targeted violence and attacks.
  • Collect threat information ethically from open and internal sources.
  • Assess the credibility and seriousness of threats using a structured method.
  • Manage persons of concern through a fair and documented process.
  • Turn intelligence into protective decisions and response options.
  • Build a threat management team that links security, human resources and legal.
