Threat levels are used by the military to communicate the level of potential threat. There are four threat levels: low, guarded, elevated, and high. Force Protection Conditions (FPCON) are measures that dictate security levels at military installations based on assessed threat levels. There are five FPCON levels: normal, alpha, bravo, charlie, and delta. The higher the threat level or FPCON level, the more stringent security measures and restrictions are enforced to ensure the safety and security of personnel and assets.
The five force protection conditions (FPCON) are FPCON Normal, FPCON Alpha, FPCON Bravo, FPCON Charlie, and FPCON Delta. These conditions are used to communicate the current threat level and guide security measures to be implemented accordingly.
Force Protection Delta, or FPCON Delta, is a threat level indicator where a terrorist attack has just occurred, is currently taking place, or is highly imminent based on recent intelligence. The FPCON levels are similar to the Defense Readiness Condition, or DECFON, levels. The main difference between these two systems are that the DEFCON system deals with military readiness against threats to the public while the FPCON system is specific to threats against the military.
The Force Protection Condition (FPCON) level is determined by the installation commander or the designated authority based on a comprehensive assessment of current threat levels, intelligence reports, and potential vulnerabilities. This decision may also involve consultation with military and law enforcement agencies. The FPCON system is used to standardize the measures taken to protect personnel and assets from terrorist threats.
