Behavioural Detection by State2 Security

What is Behavioural Detection

Behavioural detection is a proactive security method that involves trained personnel observing and analysing human behaviour to identify potential threats by recognising subtle, non-obvious clues, such as body language, facial expressions, and stress indicators, to deter and detect incidents like terrorist attacks or criminal activity before they happen. It focuses on an individual's actions and responses to their environment, rather than on physical appearance or demographics, to detect malicious intent or potential criminal behaviour. 

Key Benefits

Early Threat Detection:

Identifies suspicious activities, patterns, and individuals before they escalate into incidents, catching unknown or misunderstood threats.

Proactive Intervention:

Allows security personnel to intervene early, disrupting potential attacks and preventing escalation before significant damage occurs. 

Enhanced Situational Awareness:

Fosters a culture of vigilance and observation, improving the overall safety of an environment for employees and the public. 

Detects Various Threats:

Effective against both external (e.g., terrorists, organised crime groups) and internal threats (e.g., malicious insiders) by monitoring their behaviours and actions. 

Reduces Risk:

By catching threats early and preventing breaches, it minimises risks to people, assets, and reputation, leading to fewer security incidents and lower response times. 

Cost-Effective:

Training staff in behavioural awareness is a low-cost, high-impact solution, enhancing security without necessarily requiring significant technological investment. 

Adaptive to Evolving Threats:

Because it doesn't rely on fixed signatures, it is more adaptable to new and evolving threats.

Improved Workplace Security:

Creates a more secure environment by allowing staff to monitor compliance, identify vulnerabilities, and build positive relationships with others. 

Disruption and Deterrence:

Detected individuals may be deterred from continuing their activity, shifting their focus to other targets with less perceived security.
