How to Improve Threat Detection and Response with ETS Risk Management

Posted by ETS Risk Management on March 23rd, 2020

A protection detail could have been dining in Bali, Indonesia in 2005 protecting a client by special event security, would they have spotted the behavioral factors? Would the suicide terrorists have even been showing any external factors? Would the protection detail have had time to react even if they had spotted the threat early? These are all hypothetical questions that we will never know the answer to official website.

In 2005 three suicide bombers detonated body-borne Improvised Explosive Devices (IED’s) in a busy tourist area of Bali, Indonesia killing 20 people. Just three years prior, a mix of both vehicle-borne and body-borne IED’s killed 202 people in the same resort.  These horrific attacks were the result of carefully planned operations linked to radical Islamic terrorism.
