For Law Enforcement Appreciation Day this week, the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released a 2024 Law Enforcement Resource Guide for state, local, tribal, territorial and campus law enforcement to check for training and resource support.
It was the third annual release of the guide, and this year’s included new information about the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency’s (CISA) Shared Cybersecurity Services (SCS) funding for no-cast access to commercial Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) and services. That funding was offered to federal, state, local, tribal and territorial law enforcement agencies, along with state fusion centers and select information sharing/analysis centers alike.
On top of that, the Law Enforcement Resource Guide included resources for preparedness, information sharing, cybersecurity, critical infrastructure protection, school safety, human trafficking prevention and other funding opportunities.
“As the largest law enforcement agency in the federal government, the Department of Homeland Security is committed to ensuring that every law enforcement agency across our nation, regardless of location, size, funding, or resources, is supported in their efforts to keep their communities safe and secure,” Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas said. “The 2024 Law Enforcement Resource Guide provides a comprehensive, easily accessible directory of DHS resources to aid this important work.”
The guide was published online and will be distributed to more than 18,000 law enforcement agencies and associations nationwide.
