Furthermore, the convergence of ideological and personal motivations in violent attacks remains among the most challenging aspects of the evolving terrorism threat environment. Fortunately, corporate responses, including insider threat programmes and workforce active assailant training, are relatively agnostic: they work regardless of the ideological motivation of extremists. However, the challenge for organisations continues to be finding all the dots and connecting them within the constraints of business ethics and the law. Terrorism and new ideologies By Jonathan Wood & Shawn van Slyke Compiled with data from CORE Fig.1 Number and lethality of terrorist attacks If you’re looking for good news about the global terrorist threat, this is it: the overall number of terrorist incidents worldwide, as well as the number of estimated casualties, declined in 2017 compared to 2016, according to Control Risks data. The essential drill down reveals the inevitable nuance. The decrease was broad, but uneven and multiple countries experienced increased terrorist activity due to shifting conflict and militant group dynamics. 2014-2017 New York Washington Chicago Los Angeles Other 2002-2013 20172016 Germany Burkina Faso Colombia Egypt Greece Libya Phillippines Spain Thailand Turkey UK 09 217 379 79 33 348 184 177 395 17 33 243 208 50 16 160 307 06 78 140 29 2014-20172002-2013 London Paris Amsterdam Copenhagen Other Total ArsonTotal Immigrants 2002 2003 2004 2005100% 75% 50% 25% Vehic 2014-2017 New York Washington Chicago Los Angeles Other 2002-2013 14,000 12,000 10,000 8,000 6,000 4,000 2,000 40,000 30,000 20,000 10,000 2016 2017201520142013 Incidents Fatalities 20172016 Germany Burkina Faso Colombia Egypt Greece Libya Phillippines Spain Thailand Turkey UK 09 217 379 79 33 348 184 177 395 17 33 243 208 50 16 160 307 06 78 140 29 2014-20172002-2013 London Paris Amsterdam Copenhagen Other Fig.2 Selected country trends Source: Control Risks CORE © Control Risks 2017

However, an IS-inspired insurgency in southern Philippines intensified into a regional jihadist front, while the actions of the army in Myanmar turned the Rohingya’s plight into a jihadist cause celebre. In addition, Islamist extremists associated with both IS and al-Qaida sustained a high operational tempo across the Sahel and Horn of Africa regions. Finally, IS continued to incite and inspire multiple high-profile attacks in Western countries, particularly in Australia, Finland, Spain, Sweden, the UK, and the US. Ethno-nationalist and Marxist guerrilla movements continued to define the terrorism threat in several countries. In Colombia, the decline in FARC activity was offset by a surge in ELN attacks intended to gain leverage in peace talks. In Turkey, a heavy-handed counter-insurgency against Kurdish separatists substantially reduced the frequency and severity of attacks in western cities. In India, Marxist insurgents remained an active but localised threat. In Thailand, the long-running ethno-religious Malay insurgency continued, amid fruitless peace talks. In Western Europe and North America, meanwhile, the scope and severity of right- and left-wing extremist attacks increased. Greek militant anarchists escalated and internationalised their anti-austerity campaign with a series of letter bomb attacks targeting banks, international institutions, and politicians. In London, Paris and Charlottesville (US), meanwhile, right-wing extremists appropriated vehicle ramming as a tactic. Elsewhere in Europe, right-wing extremism tracked changes in irregular migration patterns: we recorded a sharp fall in arson attacks against refugee centres in Germany, while the number of anti-immigrant attacks increased in Italy. Diversification of violent extremism Islamist extremists, ethno-nationalist insurgents, and leftist guerrillas will remain the main sources of terrorist violence in most countries in 2018. But the fringes of a wider range of ideological movements appear to be embracing extremist violence. These include lone individuals accessing extremist ideology online but acting outside organised groups. Right-wing extremist sentiment – focusing on anti-immigrant, anti-Semitic, and ethno supremacist themes – is increasingly overt in Europe and North America. This is reflected in the rising number of reported hate crimes, including vandalism and harassment, even in the absence of significant violent attacks. Left-wing extremists – chiefly in the guise of militant anarchist and anti-fascist groups – have also increasingly tolerated violence in reaction to government social, economic and security policies. For both right- and left-wing extremists, online propaganda and social media allow individuals to participate in political movements without formal organisational ties. As with homegrown Islamist extremists, this has made the threat environment less predictable: lone actors are less likely to come to the attention of law enforcement than organised groups, and their attacks are more likely to reflect personal motivations than a group strategy. In another parallel with Islamist extremists, rising public concern about these networks is reflected in both increased voluntary and regulatory efforts to clamp down on both left- and right-wing extremist forums and propaganda. 2014-2017 New York Washington Chicago Los Angeles Other 2002-2013 20172016 Germany Burkina Faso Colombia Egypt Greece Libya Phillippines Spain Thailand Turkey UK 09 217 379 79 33 348 184 177 395 17 33 243 208 50 16 160 307 06 78 140 29 2014-20172002-2013 London Paris Amsterdam Copenhagen Other 2014-2017 New York Washington Chicago Los Angeles Other 2002-2013 14,000 12,000 40,000 2014-20172002-2013 London Paris Amsterdam Copenhagen Other Fig.4 Terrorist plots and attacks in Europe by cityFig.3 Terrorist plots and attacks in the US by city Source: Control Risks CORE © Control Risks 2017

As Islamist extremist activity shifted towards less-sophisticated homegrown extremists in Western countries, for example, it also shifted away from capital and other major cities to smaller towns and local assets familiar to the attacker. Major cities are still targets, including of transnational terrorist groups, but they are no longer the main targets. This dynamic is likely to persist in 2018, as IS seeks to incite retaliation for the loss of its territorial ‘caliphate’. Targeting by right- and left-wing extremists has traditionally followed different rules. Broadly, right-wing extremists target government buildings and personnel, Jewish and Islamic places of worship, ethnic and racial minorities, individuals and assets associated with immigration, and law-enforcement installations and personnel. By contrast, left-wing extremists target industrial, commercial and retail assets, financial institutions (especially ATMs), government buildings and personnel, law-enforcement assets (especially vehicles) and personnel, prisons and private security firms, and – of course – right-wing demonstrators. Left-wing attacks globally – excluding Marxist guerrilla movements – have been similarly concentrated against banks, and government buildings in Greece. As with Islamist extremism, lone actors potentially confound this traditional distribution of attacks. Two incidents in the US in 2017 are instructive: in June, a left-wing extremist travelled 1,400 km (865 miles) to Washington, DC, to plan and conduct a shooting attack against members of the US Congress (federal legislature). In August, a right-wing extremist travelled 875km (545 miles) to Charlottesville (Virginia) to participate in a rally, where he conducted a lethal vehicle-ramming attack against counter-demonstrators in the city centre. (Unlike the left-wing shooting attack, it remains unclear if the right-wing vehicle-ramming attack was opportunistic or planned.) In both cases, the long-distance travel to the attack location and unconventional targets suggest that lone actors at the extremist fringes of both right- and left-wing movements are expanding the range of potential attack scenarios. Diversification of tactics Recent ideological extremist attacks also indicate an increasingly diverse portfolio of tactics, techniques and procedures. This has been extensively documented among Islamist extremists, who have adopted low-tech, low-cost tactics such as knife assaults and vehicle-ramming. Such attacks are more frequently executed successfully than more complex tactics, even if the impacts are more localised and often smaller-scale. As a result, they increased to nearly half of known plots and attacks in Western countries in 2017. For both right- and left-wing extremists, arson (including both Molotov cocktails and timed incendiary devices) has been a dominant Source: Control Risks CORE © Control Risks 2017 Fig.5 Global patterns of right- and left-wing extremist attacks Total of which GermanyTotal Arson Other Arson Otherof which Greece OtherImmigrants Government Immigrants Government 18 18 11 35 05 17 12 26 36 47 04 15 17 06 10 19 0 04 13 01 11 14 05 15 27 18 18 24 11 13 04 17 09 32 15 07 0 05 08 02 08 72 28 16 49 03 28 13 01 21 12 0 11 07 98 18 67 13 24 11 06 12 05 18 64 116 48 80 07 35 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Other 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017

Beyond arson, and in line with their differential target sets, right-wing extremists have tended to favour violent assaults and firearm attacks, while left-wing extremists emphasise sabotage and vandalism. Left-wing extremists, however, have indicated renewed interest in improvised explosive device (IED) attacks Right-wing extremists, meanwhile, indicate persistent interest in explosive attacks, even if these tend to exceed their limited capabilities. This could change in the future: the Charlottesville attack, as well as two earlier vehicle ramming attacks targeting Muslim worshippers in Paris and London, highlight the diffusion of violent methods from Islamist extremists to right-wing actors. The Finsbury Park attack, for example, was apparently styled specifically as retaliation for an Islamist extremist vehicle ramming attack on London Bridge two weeks earlier. It is likely that the heightened profile of vehicle ramming attacks is contributing to their use by non-Islamist extremists. More generally, vehicle ramming as a tactic is likely to be generally attractive to violent extremists of any stripe for the same reasons it appeals to Islamist extremists: minimal training, experience, and planning required. 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 18 18 24 11 13 04 17 09 32 15 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 100% 75% 50% 25% BombVehicle Knife Firarm Other Incidents % executed 2017 33 243 208 50 16 160 307 06 78 140 29 50 100 150 200 Vehicle Knife Firearm IED Rocket missile VBIED Incendiary Suicide bombing 18% 7% 33% 65% 69% 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 18 18 24 11 13 04 17 09 32 15 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 100% 75% 50% 25% BombVehicle Knife Firarm Other Incidents % executed 2017 33 243 208 50 16 160 307 06 78 140 29 50 100 150 200 Vehicle Knife Firearm IED Rocket missile VBIED Incendiary Suicide bombing 18% 7% 33% 65% 69% Source: Control Risks CORE © Control Risks 2017 Detecting lone wolf threats The FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU) recently concluded a study of lone actor attackers, an in depth examination of offenders from across the ideological spectrum. The study reinforced the notion that attacks often followed a trail of observable behaviours and escalation, with increasingly extreme views and hostile attitudes evident to those with whom they interacted. For the most part, ‘lone wolf’ attackers appeared to be drawn to extremism to express and legitimise underlying feelings of inadequacy, frustration, anger and hostility. Just as important, the study found that an average of more than a year elapsed between the offender’s first involvement in an extremist cause and an attack, indicating an extended period of time during which intervention could have been attempted.

The shift towards low-tech attacks against public spaces has stretched traditional concepts of duty of care and operational disruption. In addition, the overlap between workplace violence incidents and threats involving radicalised employee insiders creates a more complex threat environment for companies and their employees. There is no one-size-fits-all recommended intervention approach, but ensuring that an organisation’s managers and security professionals have all available information pertaining to the threat posed by a potentially violent insider is critical. This reinforces the need for a multi-disciplinary approach to insider threat assessment and management from a corporate perspective – the hallmark of a mature and effective insider threat programme. Complex underlying issues pertaining to perceived harassment, as well as rights to privacy and religious expression in the workplace, require close collaboration between leadership from Security, Legal, Human Resources, and Information Technology. A well trained and closely coordinated Threat Management Team with representation from across these business functions enables an organisation to maximise its potential to initially identify emerging situations of concern, evaluate the totality of circumstances, and devise a tailored threat mitigation plan. Well-developed mitigation plans will enable the organisation to better detect any behaviours which could be indicative of escalation toward a potential attack. Observations take on even greater relevance in the workplace when supervisors are proactively engaged to be vigilant at earlier stages in the assessment process. Unlike casual and occasional observation by acquaintances, well- developed insider threat programmes create systematic and routine opportunities for recognition and reporting of pre-attack planning or preparation-related behaviours that might not otherwise be detected.
