The aim of this article is to create a risk analysis of selected school facilities which can
be an auxiliary tool of security solutions against terrorism. Most terrorist attacks are
focused on so-called soft targets - crowded places, which are not secure against violent
attacks. Furthermore, attacks on school facilities abroad are frequent too. A wellprepared
risk analysis is a necessary method to detect weaknesses and strengths of the
security of a soft target. The university in Zlin in the Czech Republic was chosen as a
Soft Target for this research. The paper deals with a risk analysis that was created by the
Ministry of the Interior of the Czech Republic methodology. The methodology deals
with these main variables ? Performing an Attack, Place of Attack, Time of Attack,
Likelihood, and Impact. The result of the risk analysis is a degree of threat which shows
a possible risk of the university. The risk analysis shows that the highest value of the
degree of threat represents shooting inside university during the daily working time. On
the other hand, the minimum value of the degree of threat represents shooting in front of
the university during the event of invited. In keeping with the weaknesses which
represents the value of the degree of threat under the acceptable risk level, we should
protect the soft target as well as possible. Due to the protection of the specific
weaknesses should be soft targets safer. This methodology is one of the ways how to
prepare a risk analysis of a soft target.
