What does FPCON Bravo indicate?

FPCON Bravo indicates that a predictable threat of terrorist activity exists. This condition is part of the Force Protection Condition (FPCON) system, which is used by military and security organizations to communicate the level of threat and the appropriate security measures to be adopted. When FPCON Bravo is declared, it signifies that intelligence has revealed information suggesting that there is a reasonable expectation of a terrorist threat, although it is not necessarily imminent.

This status prompts increased security measures, such as heightened vigilance and potential changes in security protocols, to prepare for and mitigate any possible threats. The focus during this condition is to bolster security and awareness without the immediate exigency presented by higher FPCON levels that might involve urgent and specific threats.
