Course Description
Terrorism is the use of violence against persons or property, or the threat of using such violence, to intimidate or coerce a government, the public, or any section of the public, for the promotion or pursuit of political, social, or ideological objectives.
A primary vulnerability to terrorism is how the organization receives and uses financial support. Thus, a key method of preventing, detecting, and deterring terrorism is to monitor, investigate, control, mitigate and eliminate the terrorist organization’s access to funding.
This course provides a study of historical strategy, as well as tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP), which may provide a plausible approach toward Counter-Terrorism and Counter-Threat Finance in the future, whether against individual terrorist cells or to larger, more organized terrorist groups, such as ISIS, Al-Qaida or the Taliban.
