From natural disasters to sophisticated cyberthreats, the risks to public safety are evolving fast.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the landscape by increasing efficiencies and risks. Learn about the benefits and challenges AI-driven 911 systems pose for communities.
Preparing for any special event includes many unknowns. When an event involves national security, the stakes are even higher. Public safety agencies have been sharing their lessons learned and providing recommendations to prepare the nation for the upcoming election events. Read some of the takeaways they shared at the D.C.

When community leaders in emergency preparedness, response, and recovery invest in engagements with community members, the return on investment can be measured in lives, properties, and money saved. The authors in this August edition of the Domestic Preparedness Journal describe ways to strengthen the entire community against known and not-yet-known threats.
When a disaster strikes, people pay attention. They watch the news, check on their loved ones, and help survivors as they can. However, after the threat has passed and the initial response has ended, there is still a lot of work to do. The authors in this July edition of the Domestic Preparedness Journal understand the people and resources involved in helping communities recover.

Better situational awareness throughout the community can help combat potentially nefarious activities before they have dire consequences.
