Improvised explosive device (IED) attacks continue to occur in the global


community by terrorist organizations and lone-wolf terrorists. For this
assignment, you are to conduct research on the use of an IED in an attack
that occurred in the United States or abroad within the last 5 years. You will
then write a case study that provides a thorough analysis of the attack and
demonstrates your understanding of concepts addressed in this course.

Your case study will contain three parts. The first part should include a
background and analysis of the attack that includes at a minimum, the

What was the motive or intent?
 Describe the type of IED used, to include the technology involved to
develop and detonate the device.

 Discuss the level of difficulty involved in building this type of device.


Were the components readily obtainable? Could instructions to build this
type of device be found on the Internet?

The second part of your case study will focus on detection and response to
the incident. Address the following points:

 Was the attack initially recognized/treated as terrorism by


emergency management? What types of counterterrorism tactics and
technology were utilized?

 What type of detection equipment was employed by first responders?

 What role, if any, did social media play in the attack or its aftermath?

 What lessons were learned by first responders, law enforcement, and

Finally, in the third part of your case study, you will consider the various
homeland security technology options discussed in this course relating to
prevention, protection, and mitigation. Offer and defend your opinion on the
following question.
