Defence and Security Forum
Defence and security impacts all levels – international, cross border, regional and on individual citizens. Threats can come from land, sea or air and can be enacted by armies or a single terrorist. To combat such diverse dangers and protect lives, national and international defence and security agencies define and instigate policies, academia and research engineers strive to develop new and improved technologies and industry endeavours to efficiently and cost effectively bring them to market. Political, budgetary and technological constraints influence decision making, timescales and final implementation.
