Homeland Security to Begin Issuing New Threat Advisories
U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson activated the National Terrorism Advisory System for the first time today.
Under the new system, DHSy will issue bulletins designed to update the public on the changing nature of terrorism threats. The department already issues bulletins to law enforcement agencies about specific cases or types of threats, but the new system is designed to provide more general information to the public about the overall threat environment.
