Proxy state actors and non-state actors challenge our cyber security, compounding vulnerabilities associated with our reliance on the availability and integrity of data, climate change and environmental degradation is creating more intense and more frequent natural hazard events, pandemics and epidemics impact society at a national and global level, trans-national criminal and terror organisations pose a physical threat to our people and operations at home and abroad, and globalisation creates supply chain vulnerabilities that have the potential to disrupt or stop business and operations.

Steve Dennis was kidnapped and shot while working for the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) in Kenya. Held for four days in Somalia before being rescued by a mixed government and militia force, the subsequent legal proceedings several years later culminated in the Oslo Courts finding the NRC grossly negligent with a €465,000 settlement case which highlights the need for effective duty of care and organisational resilience.
Jessica Buchanan was kidnapped and held for 93 days while working for the Danish Refugee Council (DRC) before being rescued by SEAL Team 6. The case study illustrates both successes and failures across multiple agencies and organisations in risk prevention measures, crisis response, and longer-term crisis management. The case highlights poor risk controls, a lack of a security culture and how leadership teams can fail their staff.
