Big league sports inspire passion and pride — from the electrifying atmosphere of game day to the galvanizing community fostered among fans. They are arguably both a cornerstone of culture and an economic force to be reckoned with. Safeguarding national and international sporting events is essential for public safety and confers economic benefit on all involved. In the United States alone, upwards of $52 billion is spent annually by sports travelers, contributing to local businesses with direct spending, creating hundreds of thousands of jobs, and providing billions in tax revenues.
Top sporting leagues are increasingly using a combination of measures, including threat intelligence tools, to prevent major security incidents. Also known as open-source intelligence (OSINT), the insight from these tools is used in concert with other efforts to ensure the security of venues, players, and fans on game days, such as the championship football game played annually between the winners of the American and National Football Conferences, referred to as “the Big Game.”
