Terör Maksatlı Biyolojik-Kimyasal Saldırılara Ait Tehdit Değerlendirmesinde Risk Analizi ve Yönetimi

Teröristler barındıkları ülkelerde olduğu gibi dış ülkelerde de faaliyet gösterebilmekte, para kaynakları, lojistik destekleri ülke sınırları ile sınırlanamamakta ve ekonomik ambargolarla para akışları durdurulamamaktadır. Ayrıca, hızlı ve etkin bir haberleşme sağlamak için en üstün teknolojileri kullanmaktadırlar. Amaçları önceki dönemlerden çok daha ölümcül olup genellikle kitle imhasına yönelik teknikler üzerinde çalışmaktadırlar. Kolluk güçleri ve devletin diğer ilgili kuruluşlarının müdahale etmek zorunda kalacakları değerlendirilen felaketler arasında en yıkıcı ve etkileri en fazla olabilecek olan biyolojik ve kimyasal saldırılar olacaktır. Biyolojik-kimyasal saldırı tehdidi toplum sağlığı ve güvenliği ile ilgilenen kurumlar için öncelikli tedbir alınması gereken bir durumdur. Hazırlanan bu makale ile biyolojik ve kimyasal saldırıların oluşturduğu tehdidin değerlendirilmesi, karşı tedbir politikalarının oluşturulmasında risk analizi ve yönetim prensiplerinin ortaya konulması, yapıcı bir yaklaşımla oluşturulacak risk değerlendirmeleri ile rasyonel tedbir politikalarının oluşturulması konularına yardımcı olmak amaçlanmıştır

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT IN TERRORIM RELATED BIOLOGICAL-CHEMICAL ASSAULT THREAT

Terrorists are acting locally and internationally. Their money source and logistic support are not dependent on the country boundries and can not be stopped by economic embargos. They use fast and efficient means of communications. Henceforth, aims of the terrorist organizations are more fatal than before and usually work on improvised explosive devices designed for mass destruction. The most devastating catastrophe which law enforcement agencies and related govermental bodies will have to deal with are to be biological and chemical assaults. This situation is a foremost important issue for the bodies dealing with public health and security. In this paper, it was aimed to assist for threat evaluation of chemical-biological assaults, establishing risk analysis and management of counter measure policies, risk assesment in a positive thinking and establishing rational precautions
