US Elections 2024 | Assessing the evolution of the threat environment across the 2024 election cycle
International SOS has identified the US election cycle as a high-risk period for security, particularly from the closure of the Democratic National Convention in August to the weeks following the November 5th election. This period is marked by an increased threat of political violence, including targeted attacks and civil unrest. Using the "Cone of Plausibility" analytical technique, International SOS has developed a range of scenarios to help organizations prepare for potential outcomes. Key drivers affecting the security environment include misinformation, global conflicts, economic conditions, and the political landscape. Organizations are advised to engage in proactive planning and stakeholder engagement to safeguard personnel and business operations during this critical period.
What is Included in the Report?
This assessment uses a structured analytical technique known as the Cone of Plausibility. Such technique evaluates how the threat environment could evolve across this period by developing baseline, higher risk, lower risk and wildcard scenarios. It also includes our Security Team's evolving analysis of the situation and key drivers.
