(U) The Washington State Fusion Center (WSFC) is providing the attached National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC), Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) First Responder’s Toolbox for your situational awareness and/or action. The product is available in the link above, and will also be posted to HSIN Release 3 (below), where it will reside for subsequent access.
(U//FOUO) SUMMARY: This First Responder’s Toolbox provides information on the Food and Agriculture sector, which is a $1 trillion industry—almost entirely under private ownership. Food infrastructure is considered a “soft target” for deliberate attack because of the decentralized nature of the infrastructure nodes. See product for more details…
