Which program does the U.S. Air Force use for terrorist detection?

• A. Eagle Eyes program
• B. Comsec
• C. Satcoms
• D. EMCON

Answer: (A)

Spotting and reporting suspicious activity is the core of Eagle Eyes, a U.S. Air Force program designed to help airmen and civilian personnel recognize indicators that could signal terrorist plans and to report them through proper channels. It promotes vigilance and situational awareness, teaching people what kinds of behavior or situations might warrant attention and how to escalate concerns to base security or defense operations so authorities can intervene early. This makes it the best fit for terrorist detection because the focus is on human observation, early warning, and rapid reporting, rather than on protecting information, maintaining communications systems, or controlling electronic emissions. Comsec centers on safeguarding sensitive information, Satcoms deals with satellite communications, and EMCON involves reducing electronic emissions to avoid detection by adversaries—none of these are programs aimed at detecting terrorism.
