The Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency is asking for help in sharing valuable resources on prevention and response to various active shooter scenarios to help protect our communities. The two resources – Security of Soft Targets and Crowded Places–Resource Guide and Active Shooter Preparedness are available for immediate download.

“We have resources that citizens can use today to help mitigate threats from an active shooter,” said Brian Harrell, assistant director for infrastructure security at CISA. “At CISA, we have developed assessments, exercises, and training that helps stakeholders understand the ‘pathways to violence,’ behavioral indicators, and security mitigation measures to reduce risk.”
