The Role of Biosafety and Biosecurity in Biotechnology to Prevent Bioterrorism Threats

“Society 5.0” is characterized as a high degree of integration of cyberspace and physical space capable of promoting economic growth and addressing social problems in a modern information society based on cutting-edge technology advancements for data processing and knowledge creation. Recent developments in the field of biotechnology have been demonstrated by gene editing techniques, especially CRISPR-Cas9, such as basic research, applied biotechnology, and biomedical research Most biotechnology is essentially “dual use” because its development can result in both profitable and nefarious goals, all depending on the perspective and motivation of the perpetrator. The purpose of this research is a better understanding of biosecurity, biosecurity, and bioterrorism threats, so as to provide a foundation for policymakers, researchers, and health professionals to improve global health security so as to realize effective biodefense systems. The research was conducted by library research, namely data collection with literature studies. By implementing biosafety and biosecurity laboratory measures in accordance with established guidelines and guidelines can help protect people, animals, the environment, and national security. Medical intelligence is vital to monitoring and assessing the threat of bioterrorism through the process of data collection, which is then analyzed, and data dissemination. The medical intelligence community can help protect public safety and prevent bioterrorism by understanding and implementing strong biosafety and biosecurity practices in laboratories. Bioterrorism attacks that can occur at any time must be anticipated by medical intelligence by conducting research and assessment of bioterrorism threats, analyzing information so that it can be passed on to the government to take appropriate policies to be able to detect and monitor the spread of infectious diseases quickly, and developing strategies to prevent the spread of disease. Combining health systems and biological agent safety in the context of biosafety and biosecurity so as to realize an effective biodefense system.
