User Needs and Major Challenges for Defence Against Terrorism - Results of SeNTRE Study for European Commission Preparatory Action on Security Research

Abstract

The SeNTRE Consortium led by the AeroSpace and Defense Industries Association of Europe (ASD) completed in January 2006 a 14 month study under the first call of the Preparatory Action for Security Research (PASR 2004), issued by the European Commission. The SeNTRE study developed and proposed a Strategy for Security Research to the European Commission, Directorate-General Enterprise & Industry. This paper presents the SeNTRE methodology, the outputs as well as the major results relevant to tactical decision making and situational awareness for defense against terrorism. It focuses on the main challenges and user needs as identified in SeNTRE through a series of capability and technology workshops each covering specific security related themes and involving a large community of users, industry representatives and academia. A more detailed reference to SeNTRE results concerning crisis management is being made and specific implementation perspectives are proposed.
