TSA Insider Threat Program

What is an insider threat?

The threat that an individual with authorized access to sensitive areas and/or information, will wittingly or unwittingly misuse or allow others to misuse this access to exploit vulnerabilities in an effort to compromise security, facilitate criminal activity, terrorism, or other illicit actions that inflict harm to people, organizations, the transportation system, or national security.

Should I report it?

Yes!  If you see something you believe is suspicious or seems out of place, you should report it here

InsiderThreat@tsa.dhs.gov.

Report It! It is your personal responsibility!
