The Nationwide SAR Initiative is a collaborative effort by the USDHS, the FBI, and state, local, tribal, and territorial law enforcement partners. This initiative helps law enforcement prevent terrorism and related criminal activity. It establishes a national ability to gather, document, process, and share SAR information.

Remain vigilant to suspicious activity and report any concerns to local law enforcement. Some examples of suspicious activity include:

• Individuals or actions which are out of place, e.g., someone improperly dressed for the weather.
• Unusual or prolonged interest in security measures, entry/exit points, or unattended vehicles.
• Purposely placing objects in sensitive or vulnerable areas to observe security response.
• Acting nervous or suspicious, possibly mumbling to themselves to sweating heavily.
