Summary/Abstract: The changing security environment increasingly brings out the risks of radicalization of large social groups and related acts of violence motivated by extremism and terrorism. The goals of the terrorist attacks are to instill fear among people through killings and injuries of civilians, as well as to attract media attention in order to propagate the ideology of extremism and terrorism. Targets of such kind of attacks mostly are poorly protected and densely populated buildings and facilities, i.e. “soft targets”. The security of such kind of places is essential to preserve life and health of people from criminal encroachments.
