Step 5c: Countermeasure Filter Selection
Introduction
Step 5c allows the user to apply countermeasure filters. The Basic CAPTool displays all coun-
termeasures applicable to threat/hazardasset combinations. In the Enhanced CAPTool, the user
may screen the countermeasures so that only those that meet the filtering criteria are displayed.
Purpose
This enhanced step allows the user to filter countermeasures contained in the CAPTool counter-
measures database.
Definitions
Countermeasure Filters--Applied criteria designed to screen measures to achieve a minimum
standard of effectiveness.
Countermeasure Criteria:
· Function--Possessing attributes to predict, deter, detect, or interdict a disruption; boost
response preparedness; or be installed as part of design/engineering.
· Implementation--Area(s) specific or asset specific, temporary/redeployable, multipurpose.
· Package--Belonging to basic, advanced, and/or threat-responsive assemblies of measures.
· Cost--A maximum unit cost per single application.
Assumptions
The user chooses to screen the display of CAPTool countermeasures.
User Inputs
The user will manually enter cost data to the desired countermeasure as in Figure 18.
Output
The user will have now entered all countermeasure filters they desire to have incorporated into
the CAPTool.
