Mastering Targeting Methodology
by Geoff Horvath, Founder / Principal Consultant
1. Understanding the Basics
Targeting methodology involves identifying and analyzing potential threats to ensure effective countermeasures. Start by gathering as much information as possible about the target.
Utilize open-source intelligence (OSINT) and signals intelligence (SIGINT) to build a comprehensive profile. This will help in understanding the target's capabilities and intentions.
2. Analyzing Data
Once you have collected the data, it’s essential to analyze it effectively. Look for patterns and connections that can reveal the target’s strategies and potential vulnerabilities.
Employ advanced analytical tools and techniques to sift through large volumes of data. This ensures that you don't miss any critical information.
3. Developing Countermeasures
Based on your analysis, develop and implement countermeasures to neutralize the threat. This could involve deploying specific technologies, adjusting operational tactics, or enhancing security protocols.
Ensure that your team is trained to recognize and respond to these threats effectively. Continuous training and updates are vital in staying ahead of evolving threats.
