Goal 1.1: Terrorist Attacks

Preventing Terrorist Attacks

Other Information:

Malicious actors are unable to conduct terrorist attacks within the United States. The United States has made significant progress in securing the nation from terrorism since the September 11, 2001, attacks. Nevertheless, work remains as the terrorist threats facing the country have evolved in the last ten years, and continue to change. Created with the founding principle of protecting the American people from terrorist and other threats, DHS and its many partners, internationally, across the federal, state, and local governments, tribal and territorial, public and private sectors, and communities across the country have strengthened the homeland security enterprise to better mitigate and defend against dynamic threats.
