The Chameleon Associates consultants and security engineers developed processes, methods and tools that once applied in a protected environment can provide the ultimate deterrence effect and threat mitigation result. This Seminar will lay out these methods and will provide the attendees with the following cost saving solutions:
- Significantly reduce the amount of people deployed in security
- Significantly reduce the potential for terrorist or criminal activity
- Significantly reduce operational deficiencies by focusing on threat vs. risk
- Significantly enhance the capabilities of your security technology
- Significantly enhance the security image of the organization

Chameleon presenters will use visual aids and demos to demonstrate real life applications of terrorist and suicide bombing means and tools. The seminar will be delivered using a Power Point slide presentation. The electronic files of the presentations will be handed to the attendees at the end of the seminar for training use in their own organizations. The Presentation is designed to deliver the programs content in a clear and organized fashion.
Amotz Brandes – Managing Partner
Mr. Brandes is a veteran of an Israeli Defense Forces Special Reconnaissance and Intelligence Unit. He began his career as a Security Agent for El-Al Israeli Airlines in Los Angeles. Since joining
Chameleon Associates he formed the Consulting Division and developed training programs in "Red Teaming", "Predictive Profiling" and "Security Engineering". Mr. Brandes has an extensive project management and business development experience from international and federal projects. He was the project manager for many security audits and red teaming exercises around the world at mass transit hubs, government facilities, museums, malls and airports to name a few. He is the Author of the "Terrorist Threat Mitigation Reference Guide" and a lecturer and presenter in corporate and government settings, worldwide. Mr. Brandes has a B.A Degree in International Development Studies from UCLA. He is the Chair of the Homeland Security Committee of the California Israel Chamber of Commerce.
"The real world experience and non-fiction examples of the application of thier methodology were superb. They need to be briefing upper levels of the US Government."
"I found the information that was presented in the seminar to be both relevant and useful. The concepts were both new and exciting, and were in complete contrast to the many seminars that I have attended which put out the same old information that we have been hearing for many years. The Chameleon speakers are not only dynamic and interesting, but include many who have had real life experiences with the subject being taught. One comes away from a Chameleon seminar with a real, usable grasp of the subject and a feeling of time and money well spent."
"The Predictive Profiling & Terrorist Threat Mitigation Seminar is one of the most organized and well presented seminars I have attended in twenty five years of law enforcement. This well presented and thought provoking method surprises me that more governmental and civilian organization do not attend and place these measures in process. The civil liability requires us to perform all the techniques available to us to protect the public. As law enforcement takes on more of the "homeland security" role, combined with budget and staff limitations, this educational opportunity offers to be a financial must. This is a protection of our most valued asset, the public we defend."
"This seminar is a must for security executives. It pulls you out of your element and makes you think about security and protection in a whole new way...one that applies to any protected environment you are trying to secure. I highly recommend it."
"The 'Predictive Profiling' process does not depend on (classified) intelligence to work; intelligence can complement 'Predictive Profiling' but is not at all necessary. In fact, 'Predictive Profiling' tends to produce intelligence..."
"A big hooray for your two day seminar, "Predictive Profiling and Terrorist Threat Mitigation!" Your organization is certainly a major benefit to not only the interested industries, but also everyone in the United States..."
Air Line Pilot Association Magazine – Nov/Dec 07 Issue
"To stop a terrorist, you need to think like a terrorist - which is precisely what the unsuspecting participants of this year's annual Aviation Security Forum, or AvSec 2007, of ALPA's National Security Committee (NSC), were suddenly asked to do. During one of the many briefings, discussions, and group activities of this 4-day, August event, Amotz Brandes, consultant and former security agent for El Al Airlines assigned to Los Angeles, walked AvSec participants through the eight stages necessary to plan a terrorist attack-marking, intelligence gathering, surveillance, planning, tooling up, training and rehearsal, execution, and getaway. Brandes pointed out the kinds of vulnerabilities these criminals look for during this process, adding that 'typical attacks take one to five years to execute'. Brandes then turned the tables on the audience, dividing them into four groups and providing them with different scenarios. He then asked each group to plot an attack. This riveting exercise and the ensuing discussion revealed the many challenges that plotters would confront while planning an attack on the air transportation system. AvSec 2007 attendees walked away with a new-found appreciation for the available information about terrorism and the many over-lapping layers of airline security that protect our airplanes, airports, and most of all, flight crews and the traveling public."
Predictive Profiling is a different approach that starts from the point of view of the aggressor and is based on actual aggressors methods of operation. We believe that Profiling behaviors and situations should be the foundation for behind every security procedure.
Chameleons Predictive Profiling methods are applicable to virtually any environment and set of security requirements. If you have special needs, the course can be built for your specific environment and resources.
Homeland Security & Defense Officials - articulating the security objective they are tasked to accomplish.
Security Systems Engineers - processes necessary for building a comprehensive threat mitigation framework.
Security Systems Integrators - design of a threat oriented framework based on the Cyclical Security Engineering Process.
Homeland Security Solution Providers - articulating a protected environments security objectives based on calculated risks, resources and capabilities.
- The Threat Mitigation Guide
The Guide is a reference book designed to help security professionals to better map their protected environments and security threats. The guide describes key terminologies and definitions of threat and provides successful formulas for threat mitigation. - Presentation
Conference attendees will receive a hard copy of the seminars multimedia presentation for them to use as reference for training inside their organizations. - Videos
Course attendees will receive a CD containing the educational videos presented in the seminar together with other visual collateral material.
