Active Shooter TTX (Sample Scenario)
Event so far
8:00 AM  Security receives a telephone call
that there is a man with a gun and he
is shooting everywhere
• Report indicates one victim laying in
the parking lot
8:02 AM  911 center receives emergency call
from Security
8:03 AM  Security makes announcement over
the PA
8:05 AM  Security notifies site emergency
coordinator
• External gates opened
• Main gate house appointed the initial
staging area for public safety
responders
Issues so far
 Are employees trained for this type of
emergency?
 Does your site emergency plan include
active shooter response?
 How do you control access to the site?
 Do you have the security technology to
assist law enforcement in locating the
victims and shooter?
 Do employees shelter in place or
evacuate?
 Should you deactivate card readers (i.e.
no access)?
 How do you manage visitors and
contractors that are on site?
 Are critical phone calls getting through to
Security?

IP-SSTEP (Sample Scenario)
Details of the overseas attacks are:
 May 27: Water Borne Improvised
Explosive Device (WBIED) attack
against a US vessel off the coast of
Nigeria resulting in 35 killed and 40
injured.
 June 1: Two chemical plants in
Germany, a coal power plant in
Belgium, and oil pipelines in France
are attacked with Large Vehicle
Borne Improvised Explosive Device
(LVBIED).
• In the Germany attacks, 190 tons of
chlorine is released causing
evacuation of the nearby towns. All
four attacks resulted in total casualties
of approximately 1000; over 300
civilians die.
 June 4: German authorities thwart an
attack against a pipeline in Eastern
Germany.
Key Questions

With the successful execution of
overseas terrorist attacks on critical
infrastructure how would you receive
unclassified information regarding the
incident?
•
Which, if any, information-sharing
mechanisms would be utilized?
•
What information would your
facility require? Who would you
contact to obtain this information
and how would you contact them?
•
What should you expect to see, if
anything, on HSIN-CS at this
time?
•
Does your company/facility have
mechanisms in place to share
information with international
partners? And if so, what are the
various procedures currently in
place?
