Threat and Vulnerability Assessment

ARA is the developer of the Federal Security Risk (FSR) Manager methodology and software. We perform detailed threat assessments considering likely attack scenarios and specific vulnerabilities of facilities.

We are intimately involved in research into and analysis of existing and emerging threats and counter measures. We consider the full spectrum of blast, chemical, biological, and radiological threats. We develop the Vulnerability Assessment and Protection Option (VAPO) program that provides fast-running, physics based damage and injury assessments for urban threats considering the 3D reflection and diffraction of blast.

We perform assessments for military and civilian facilities, including military bases, federal buildings (offices, courthouses, embassies), airports, and industrial facilities.
