  1. DOMESTIC THREAT PRODUCED BY MR. RICK CASTRO NGB-AT

  2. INTRODUCTION With the ARNG’s vital role in providing support for homeland defense and the war on terrorism, the nature and types of threats against us have become as diverse as our mission.

  3. TERRORISTS VANDALS SABOTEURS CRIMINALS THREATS

  4. Their ideologies range from: • - POLITICAL • - RELIGIOUS • - REVOLUTIONARY • - ENVIRONMENTAL • - SPECIAL INTEREST • - NARCO TERRORISTS • Terrorist organizations continue to become tactically and technologically advanced, and possess the capability to strike anywhere in the world. • Employed are as diverse as the organizations themselves. • Certain groups remain intent on acquiring, developing, and employing Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). • The ARNG’s assets and diverse mission has exposed the organization to targeting of foreign and domestic terrorist intentions. • The threat to the ARNG is significant and there are no affiliated persons immune from the risk of terrorist attack.

  5. GANGS UNSOPHISTICATED ORGANIZED CRIMINALS The following are the most significant threats... • The ARNG is highly susceptible to criminals intent on gaining profit from the theft of state and government property. • There are varying degrees of crime that pose a threat to the ARNG’s operational capabilities.

  6. ORGANIZED • Targets include, but are not limited to: • - All caliber firearms • - Ammunition and explosives • - Pharmaceuticals (controlled substances) • - Military communications equipment • - Identification production equipment • - U.S. Government vehicle tags • - Specialized equipment (night vision, etc.) • Professional criminals, with various degrees of training. • Conduct surveillance, possibly infiltrate the ranks, and plan in detail. • May possess advanced equipment for unlawful entry into facilities and secure areas. • May be affiliated with terrorist organizations.

  7. UNSOPHISTICATED • Person or group of persons with little or no training. • May be affiliated with terrorist organizations. • Conduct little or no surveillance and planning. • May or may not possess advanced equipment. Typically destroy established security measures to gain access. • Commit criminal acts for personal gain. • Target items that can be easily sold: • - Common caliber weapons (M9, M590, M4/16) • - Common caliber ammunition • - Tools • - Pharmaceuticals (controlled substances) • - Office equipment (computers, copiers, etc.)

  8. GANGS • Target items that can be sold: • - Common caliber weapons (M9, M590, M4/16) • - Common caliber ammunition and explosives • - Vehicles • - Pharmaceuticals (controlled substances) • - Specialized equipment (night vision, etc.) • - Office equipment (computers, copiers, etc.) • Gangs operate in a similar manner to organized criminals. • May posses equipment comparable to organized criminals for unlawful entry. • They act to amass weapons to counter their rivals and acquire items that can be sold to fund their activities. The presence of gangs and gang members within the ARNG’s units, near installations and armories pose a significant threat to personnel and property.

  9. SABOTEURS • Saboteurs generally strike… • - Mission-critical personnel • - Manufacturing facilities • - Transportation hubs • - Communication nodes • - Ammunition, explosives, and fuel depots • Pose a significant threat to the ARNG. • Their actions whether foreign directed or domestically derived, can have a catastrophic impact on operational capability.

  10. VANDALS • Vandals are an imminent threat to ARNG assets. • Incidents of vandalism are the most commonly reported. • Vandalism can be costly, effect operations, and unit preparedness. • Vandals range significantly in their ages and their reasons. • Their acts include but are not limited to: • - Breaking windows • - Slashing Tires • - Graffiti

  11. CYBER THREAT • The threat to ARNG automated information systems (AIS) is significant. • Involve deliberate, overt, and clandestine acts to achieve desired results. • Includes the theft or destruction of computer hardware and software. • The information, not the systems that transports it, is the target.

  12. HACKERS CYBER TERRORISTS INSIDERS CYBER CRIMINALS COMMON AIS THREATS

  13. HACKERS • These unauthorized users constitute most cyber attacks. • In most instances, the challenge in accessing government systems is the sole motivation. • They primarily attack computer-based systems, but are not limited to attacks on AIS networks and mainframes.

  14. INSIDERS • Individuals with legitimate access to AIS pose the most significant threat. • Their motives range from personal conviction to monetary compensation. • Whether recruited or self-motivated they are the hardest to defend against.

  15. TERRORISTS/ CRIMINALS • Have embraced technology to accomplish their target selections, intelligence collection, and operational planning. • Unauthorized access to AIS has increased the possibility of critical data being manipulated or destroyed. • By gaining access to a computer network they can increase their probability of success.

  16. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE SERVICES

  17. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE SERVICES • Operate overtly and clandestinely to gain access to, and steal, military information. • Their collection efforts take place wherever possible to engage the targeted individual with minimum risk to the collector. • The collector(s) can acquire information through a variety of mediums to include electronic and physical surveillance. • Generally highly trained, and able extract information with cunning and persistence. • Highly trained to recruit individuals from whom to illicit information to further their national or organizational objectives.
