Conducting a terrorism risk management process will help you understand how terrorists may pose a threat to your organisation and how to reduce or manage the risks.
A clearly recorded assessment could not only aid you in strengthening protection against an attack but could also be an important tool for investigations or legal proceedings should an incident occur at or around your site.
Managing the risks arising from terrorism can be done using a five-step process.

You may wish to follow this process yourself or identify a competent person to do it for you. However, the overall responsibility for owning and controlling the risks will always be yours.
ProtectUK outlines the risk management process in more detail, with templates and examples for different sizes of venues and events. Templates include a comprehensive list of security measures, in addition to those detailed in this booklet, which can be implemented to address identified gaps in your counter terrorism security.
