For Catherine Owens

Unit VII Research Paper The purpose of this assignment is to provide you with the opportunity to apply the knowledge you have gained toward mitigating the probability of a terrorist attack based on the information provided in the scenario list provided in Unit II. You will assume the position that you are an officer in charge of providing security in the scenario you have chosen. You will analyze the physical location of the scenario, mitigate probable areas of concern, and identify probable targets that may require special attention. It is up to you and your personnel to ensure that terrorists will have no opportunity to disrupt the event or unleash any form of attack. The lives of the participants in the event depend on your ability to predict every given situation and provide security to prevent such attacks. Please identify all weak areas, and provide your analysis of how to protect property and personnel during the event as well as before and after the event. The paper must address the following areas of concern:  How does the terroristic act in your paper impact future prospects of terrorism whether by genetic engineering, cyberterrorism, biological warfare, or any other weapons of mass destruction (WMD)?  Evaluate the moral and ethical implications of the use of this type of WMD destruction.  Assess the capabilities of the WMD portrayed in your scenario, and mitigate counteraction strategies. Please use the scenario you chose in the Unit II assignment that was approved by the instructor. Complete a research paper that must be a minimum of five pages in length, not including the title page and the reference page. The research paper must follow APA guidelines and contain the following components:  Title page: The title page must be in APA format, which includes the APA running head and the page number in the header.  Abstract: Provide a brief explanation of the purpose of your paper. This must be a minimum of 150 words. This should be similar to the topic description you submitted in the Unit II assignment.  Introduction: Provide a brief review of the scenario you have chosen that was submitted and approved by the instructor in Unit II.  Intermediate headings: Intermediate headings help the reader transition from one subject to the next. This is the focus of your research and analysis on the scenario you have chosen, where you identify the risks and mitigate solutions that will provide the appropriate protection as well as provide reactive measures in case terrorists manage to complete an attack regardless of your preventive measures. The content must center on the three areas of concern identified above.  Conclusion: Provide a summary of your findings and solutions based on best practices.  Reference page: You must include the heading (References) centered above the reference list on a separate last page. You must include the three references selected in the Unit II assignment. All references must be in APA format, and each reference must relate to at least one in-text citation. Information about accessing the grading rubric for this assignment is provided below. Submitting Course Papers/Projects Once you have completed your papers/projects, submit your completed papers/projects.

THIS IS THE SCENARIO THAT YOU USE, THAT GOES WITH THIS RESEARCH.

Scenario 1: The election year is heating up with every new debate. You are the police chief of Atlanta. A debate has been scheduled in the Atlanta Chastain Park, which is the largest city park in Atlanta and consists of 268 acres of open terrain. The park is located near the northern edge of the city. The debate will be held at the Chastain Park Amphitheater, which is designed to hold just under 7,000 people, not including the politicians and their personnel. You can search the Google Maps (https://www.google.com/maps) website for a map location of Chastain Park. Your research must identify what federal and state agencies will be assisting you with the security for the event. You have been assigned the duty to provide a risk analysis of the physical facilities and to provide your opinion of the probability of terrorist attacks against the politicians, the 7,000 participants within the amphitheater, and the untold numbers that will be in the park surrounding the theater. You must ensure the safety of everyone attending the debate and those visiting the park. Your mitigation plan must address ingress and egress to and from the park and the amphitheater before, during, and after the event. Additionally, you must identify possible existing threats as well as the terrorist groups responsible for those threats. You must identify any and all probable avenues of attack and develop a plan to prevent such attacks. Keep in mind, you must prepare for the worst-case scenario, which can consist of any form of an attack, including an attack from the ground or air, long-distance attacks, or preplanted improvised explosive devices (IEDs). Consider that thousands of people may die or be seriously injured if your plan fails to recognize all relevant scenarios or threats.
