Around the world ‘Food and Agriculture’ is often designated a Critical Infrastructure Sector. It is diverse – e.g. crops, livestock, poultry, seafood – and the threats are as diverse as climate change, international conflicts and theft and fraud including by organised criminals. Clearly this is an area where security professionals have had to step up, but how well protected is our food supply? What are the risks and are we sure we are preparing and responding effectively? How can increased information sharing between & amongst the public & private sectors help to reduce these risks?
This webinar will highlight these issues and discuss:
• The importance of private/public partnerships in protecting food terrorism
• Improving information sharing – the need for a global food and agriculture centric information sharing analysis center (ISAC)
• The role of transportation security/cargo theft mitigation in reducing threats to the food supply/global strategies to improve a supply chain of a competent workforce
