Tyler - DHS (Department of Homeland Security) issued a National Terrorism Advisory Bulletin. Issued: January 04, 2020 05:15 pm. Expires: January 18, 2020 01:00 pm.

Details:

• Iranian leadership and several affiliated violent extremist organizations publicly stated they intend to retaliate against the United States.

• At this time we have no information indicating a specific, credible threat to the Homeland. Iran and its partners have demonstrated the intent and capability to conduct operations in the United States.

• Previous homeland-based plots have included, among other things, scouting and planning against infrastructure targets and cyber enabled attacks against a range of U.S.-based targets.

• Iran maintains a robust cyber program and can execute cyber attacks against the United States. Iran is capable, at a minimum, of carrying out attacks with temporary disruptive effects against critical infrastructure in the United States.

• An attack in the homeland may come with little or no warning.

Be Prepared:

• Be prepared for cyber disruptions, suspicious emails, and network delays.

• Be responsible for your personal safety. Know where emergency exits and security personnel are located. Carry emergency contact and special needs information with you.

• Implement basic cyber hygiene practices such as effecting data backups and employing multi-factor authentication. For more information visit CISA.gov.
