and each contains RDT&E requirements that are often interconnected , interdependent and asynchronous in our ability to develop, field and make commercially acceptable.
09:30 - 10:30 Speaker: Charles Schnabolk: President: The Security Design Group
Topic: Charlie has over 3 decades of experience in the Security Technology sector having designed
protection systems for some of the most complex facilities in the nation, including a controversial study
he prepared for the Port Authority of NY & NJ as a member of the nation's first anti-terrorism task force in
1985. That report predicted the 1st terrorist attack on American soil by foreigners that occurred in the garage area in 1993 and the probability of the 9/11 event.
A confidentiality agreement remained in force while the P.A. fought release of the report in several court actions for over 22 years. A court decision in 2006 now allows Charlie to discuss that secret report for
the first time at the IACSP seminar.

studies that deal with successes and best practices in the use of HUMINT in the war on terror as well as the criminal activity. In addition, Mr. Tal will present an overview of Terrorism,Trends and Forecasts

02:00 - 03:00 Speaker: Aaron Richman: Executive Director of the Institute of Terrorism Research and Response, Commander of Israel Jerusalem Police Force
Topic: Richman's presentation will address Adversarial Targeting. In order to effectively interdict
adversarial planning at the earlier phases of an attack, law enforcement and the private security field need
to understand the various planning and logistical aspects of an attack. The presentation will deal with the way the adversary seeks out to attack a target and why phases must be accomplished by the adversary
to be successful. Early interdiction within the adversarial planning phase, will prevent successful attack on the asset being protected.
