I see many track where attacks are coming from... Might be good to look at what they are learning? Whether it helps?

Many ways,

You can map social media feed like twitter on GIS to identify the threat and source of threat.

You can track vehicles and other assets on GIS to get latest situation on ground.

Weather plays a key role in security and can be mapped from open data services..

etc.. etc.

Making a map of previously targeted areas and possible new ones may also help.
