The future of terrorism detection and analysis

Join Katherine Keneally, Director of Threat Analysis and Prevention at the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD), for a seminar on the future of terrorism detection and analysis as part of the Calleva-Airey Neave Global Security Seminar Series.

This session will explore the future of threat detection and analysis in counterterrorism efforts, focusing on how the evolving threat landscape is reshaping global security strategies. As terrorist tactics continue to become more decentralized and increasingly sophisticated, traditional detection methods face growing challenges. One of these areas to be explored is the impact of social media and digital platforms on youth radicalization, which has led to the emergence of new threats that are harder to predict and track. While advances in artificial intelligence and data analytics offer promising tools for detecting threats, these technologies also come with limitations. The discussion will dive into these issues, emphasizing the need for innovative, multi-faceted approaches to countering terrorism in an increasingly complex and interconnected world.
