Abstract
In the current evolving global economy societies have become increasingly dependent on imported goods. Due to this, the role of transport logistics has become very important. Reliability of delivery is a key characteristic of the logistic system which the National Emergency Supply Agency of Finland wants to secure and maintain. A research programme was started in 2005 to support the risk assessment and management of the national logistic system as part of the national security of supply system. The main objective of the LOGHU project is to develop a risk assessment framework for identification and ranking of threats and countermeasures in relation to the logistic system. The paper presents intermediate results from the on-going research programme.
