The goal of the guidelines within the European Economic Area (EEA), such as the IT Baseline Protection Catalog, is to assess risks for any IT system in order to establish an acceptable level of protection, security and safety. This risk-based approach does not aim to providing an absolute safe environment. The goal is to systematically address threats for the integrity, availability, security and system safety; and to do so proactively to ensure a level of protection adequate to the demands and level of data stored/processed. By focusing on threat assessment, in most cases a high degree of individualized protection can even be achieved without detailed regulations. Guidelines like the Baseline Protection Catalog are the basis for voluntary self-certifications, as it also includes a detailed threat assessment that would suggest technical, infrastructural, organizational and personal measures needed for protection.
Conducting a Violence Risk Assessment
Published in Brian Van Brunt, Chris Taylor, Understanding and Treating Incels, 2020
We discussed the practical approaches to threat assessment and violence risk assessment. Having the IIR provides a more detailed lens into incel indoctrination and allows for an added depth when exploring risk factors in conjunction with stabilization influences. Chapter 10 reviews a number of clinical approaches to treatment as they can be applied to the incel. The following Chapters 11, 12, and 13 walk the reader through three case studies that are set in junior high school, college, and the workplace to assist in understanding the totality of the threat assessment intervention and management process.

Threat assessment and management units have been set up in a number of jurisdictions to evaluate the threat to politicians and royalty from individuals who engage in threatening or inappropriate behaviours or communications.
Evaluating threats of mass shootings in the psychiatric setting
Published in International Review of Psychiatry, 2021
Even more so than in other cases, communication with collaborating agencies is of paramount importance when public violence is threatened. In the emergency and inpatient setting, law enforcement may be the party initiating the psychiatric evaluation. However, in the outpatient setting, the provider may have to involve them when allowable by privacy policy. Generally, disclosures of PHI to law enforcement or a potential target are permitted to lessen a threat, and there may be instances where disclosures to third parties are mandated. Threat assessment teams are a multi-disciplinary approach that help coordinate psychiatric and legal efforts.
Grade-Level Distinctions in Student Threats of Violence

Threat assessment is a form of risk assessment with a narrower focus that evaluates a specific targeted act that a person threatened to carry out. School-based threat assessment teams use a step‐by‐step process to gather information, make systematic judgments using both case‐specific and dynamic risk factors, and implement management strategies to reduce the risk of violence (Cornell & Sheras, 2006). The teams are multidisciplinary, such as a principal, school mental health personnel, teacher, and/or school resource officer. Understanding developmental differences may help teams make more accurate assessments among student threats.
A systematic review of threat assessment in K-12 schools: Adult and child outcomes

Despite the significant benefits of threat assessment procedures in schools, there is a salient need to improve current frameworks being implemented in schools such as VSTAG and CSTAG. Most notably, there is a need for a measure to examine the fidelity of implementation of the threat assessment decision-making process to ensure that the current procedures are being implemented as they were designed. Ultimately, this may help reduce many of the current weaknesses of the threat assessment process examined in the review regarding disciplinary outcomes and initial identification of threats.
