TARA: Integrated Threat Assessment and Risk Analysis for Situational Awareness and Response

In a complex and dynamically-changing environment, to ensure physical security, decision-makers need (i) constantly track and analyze very large volumes of data from surveillance, (ii) bring a situation to the desired resolution in the shortest possible time, and (iii) deploy resources strategically based on real-time determination of threat. In order to address this need, Intelligent Automation Inc. (IAI) proposes to develop TARA, an integrated Threat Assessment and Risk Analysis system for situational awareness and response. By taking event detection data from multiple networks, pairing with historical data, and updating asset risk metrics in real-time, TARA can provide risk-based situational awareness and response in highly dynamic, and uncertain tactical situations, to secure both fixed and mobile assets.
