The aim of this course is to identify the technical parameters of different technologies in this area. Since different working environments have different impact on the detection capabilities, the focus will be on rail and metro transport. Threats are evolving, and terrorist and crime organisation are developing new ways to bypass the existing security controls. The explosive devices used in different areas to carry out attacks have different technical characteristics, and the threat amounts (the weight of explosives) vary in different areas. The security technologies used today have different capabilities and limitations (e.g. x-ray, explosive trace detection, security scanners or trace detection portals).
Law enforcement officers involved in the use, supervision and planning of physical security measures in different areas of public security (airport, rail, sport and public events, VIP protection, etc.).
