Our threat landscape has shifted dramatically over the past twenty years; from the large scale-attacks attacks committed by foreign Islamist terrorists to the increased threat of domestic terrorism. Attacks on soft targets &#8211; such as houses of worship, nightclubs, office buildings, and concert venues, and emerging threats such as cyber-attacks and the use of unmanned aerial vehicles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Acting-Secretary Wolf continued on the focus of the programs:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The paradigm has shifted.

Our four priority areas, based on DHS\u2019s assessment of recent attacks and other events and trend analysis from a variety of public and private sector sources, will help ensure the Department\u2019s resources are applied most effectively. Importantly, we have also included recommendations from governors and mayors, as well as national security experts and emergency management associations, in order to enhance our security posture going forward.\u00a0<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S Department of Homeland Security has released funding for eight grant programs whose funding totals nearly $1.8B dollars.
