Security

Security is a particularly big concern for the modern Olympics. Since the security threats posed during the Atlanta 1996 and Athens 2004 Olympics, it has become a major issue for host nations.. Through investigating previous threats, we can identify the likely threat types to London 2012. By understanding the interaction of hostile intent; operational capability; and potential influences on security, we can start to identify the security capabilities required to address different threats to security during London 2012.
