Post 9/11 - Scholarly research of terrorism spiked following the events of September 11, 2001 but research on terrorism has steadily declined since 2006, as illustrated in Figure 4. Furthermore, a 2002 business continuity planning survey designed after the terrorist attacks of 9/11 revealed that two-thirds of the firms surveyed did not view malicious activity, such as terrorism, as a threat to business (Cerullo Cerullo, 2004). The development of a business continuity plan has proven to mitigate the impact of a disaster such as a terrorist attack (Cerullo Cerullo, 2004). However, a post 9/11 survey designed by Ernst and Young revealed that only 53% of the firms surveyed had a business continuity plan (Cerullo Cerullo, 2004) to deal with terrorism type disasters. Similarly, a 2016 business survey from Clements Worldwide (2016), a leading global insurance provider founded in 1947, uncovered only 16% of the respondents said they were as prepared as they could be to deal with terrorism .
