Marauding TerroristAttack Training
Practical, proportionate preparation that helps UK organisations understand an MTA and make safer decisions under pressure.
About Marauding Terrorist Attack Training
A marauding terrorist attack is a fast-moving incident in which one or more attackers may move through a location while targeting people. Proportionate preparation gives staff and leaders a clear understanding of immediate actions, site procedures, communications and the limits of their responsibilities without creating unnecessary alarm.
GTS tailors MTA training to the client’s premises, people, operating hours, emergency plans and identified risks through awareness sessions, leadership briefings, scenario discussions and tabletop exercises. Training references UK principles including Run Hide Tell and emergency-services instructions, but does not imply government endorsement, Counter Terrorism Policing or ProtectUK accreditation, SIA approval or a professional qualification.
Preparedness Built Around Your Environment
Training is tailored to the organisation’s premises, workforce, visitors, public access, operating pattern, and existing emergency arrangements rather than delivered as a generic response script.
Awareness & Immediate Actions
Clear, non-alarmist guidance that helps participants recognise the nature of an MTA and understand their immediate choices.
Site & Leadership Preparedness
Practical planning for the people, spaces, communications, and responsibilities specific to the organisation.
Exercises & Improvement
Structured discussion and exercises that turn policy into practical, proportionate actions.
How We Work
Every GTS engagement follows a proven methodology - from initial threat assessment through ongoing operations.
Threat Assessment
We begin with a confidential consultation to understand your environment, principal profile, and specific risk factors — building an accurate threat picture before any deployment.
Program Design
Our security architects design a programme tailored to your requirements - selecting the right personnel, technology, and protocols to address your specific threat environment.
Team Deployment
We deploy vetted professionals with the right skills and background for your program — integrating seamlessly into your environment from day one.
Ongoing Operations
Continuous monitoring, daily reporting, and regular program reviews ensure your protection adapts as your risk environment evolves.
Discreet. Professional.
Effective.
GTS agrees the scope, audience, learning objectives, exercise boundaries, and reporting arrangements before delivery. Scenarios are handled sensitively, participation is managed appropriately, and recommendations are framed as practical improvements rather than unsupported guarantees of safety or compliance.
Business Insider recently featured GTS in a profile on elite private security - a recognition of the training programme and operational culture that CEO Kenneth Bombace has built since founding the firm.
