> CARVER2®

The Center has developed CARVER2, a free software tool that provides a non-technical method of comparing and ranking critical infrastructure and key resources. It is the only assessment tool that ranks critical infrastructure across sectors.

The CARVER2 vulnerability assessment tool is designed to quickly and easily identify and compare potential natural disaster and/or terrorist targets at the local, state and national levels in order to assist government officials in the allocation of protective resources.

The CARVER2 target analysis tool is available free of charge to federal, state, and local government officials and agencies, as well as non-profit and educational institutions. See below to request the installation package.

Client/server version available: CARVER2webTM

A client/server version of CARVER2, CARVER2web for Windows XP, is now available. The client version can be used as a standalone assessent tool, or in conjunction with the server version which will enable remote inspectors to upload and share data across an organization's Intranet.
