Disaster management and the role of the intelligence and security services

Abstract

The intelligence and security services are working closely with law enforcement agencies to counteract the activities of organized criminal syndicates and international terrorist organizations. Intelligence work is expected to become more broad based in the future and experts from the private sector will work more closely with personnel from the public sector. A number of long‐term workable partnership arrangements will be formed based on trustworthy behaviour. A greater commitment to disaster management and recovery should witness a greater emphasis on business continuity planning, and this should result in more robust corporate security systems being developed and installed.
