Global Security Threats
Threats we all face around the world
The modern world faces an unprecedented convergence of international security threats and instability. This coupled with the rise in national and international crime rates and crime organisations, that increasingly cross national borders in a legal and illegal migratory way, can pose an incalculable threat to the international community, in an increasingly globalised world.
High-intensity conflict and instability span the globe, and the spectrum of instability includes regions and states that are not necessarily in overt conflict, but that are institutionally and economically fragile and vulnerable to shocks.
The range of threats among them includes regional coercion and interference, transnational terrorism, health insecurity, use of chemical and other unconventional weapons, substantial displacement of peoples and populations, and overwhelming humanitarian crises creating a complex operating environment.
Traditional methods of response have proven increasingly ineffective against modern global conflict and instability crises, with the combination of threats and instability presenting unique challenges for governments and policymakers.
The International community has thus become increasingly reliant on modernised professional security organisations to manage risk and provide analysis and security solutions to meet security objectives when faced with complex global threats and regional instability around the globe.
