<abstract>This document is a preliminary report on the role that mathematical and statistical methods might play in the defense  against terrorist attacks. The ideas enumerated here utilize the notion of probabilistic risk analysis, which was developed for the purpose of assessing the safety nuclear reactors, as well as randomization and game theory </abstract>
