Abstract
A lot has been said and written about the term soft targets; basically, it is connected with the term active shooter/active assailant. There is hardly a week when you do not hear a story on television of a shooting, someplace. What is risk analysis? It is a management tool as described in this chapter. Item 77 discusses Layers of Protection, which Mark Beaudry, PhD, CPP, describes as an onion. “Using LOPA is exactly represented by the layers of an onion skin, sometimes called ‘lines of defense.’ The objective is to implement barriers that will result in time delays for the offender to get to a targeted area.”
