      • The Gate 15 Interview EP 44: Faith-Based ISAO and DHS CISA on partnership, risk reduction, pizza MREs, and some great rock n’ roll
        In this episode of The Gate 15 Interview, Andy Jabbour welcomes Mayya Saab, Executive Director, Faith-Based Information Sharing & Analysis Organization (FB-ISAO), Susan Schneider, presently detailed as Associate Director, Non-governmental Engagements, with the DHS Office of Partnership and Engagement, and Daniel Avondoglio, with the Office of Security Programs at CISA.
        Mayya on LinkedIn.
        Susan on LinkedIn.
        Daniel on LinkedIn.
        Those who want to engage with the DHS Office of Partnership and Engagement may email [email protected].
        This discussion is not limited in only being relevant to the faith-based community but addresses considerations and ideas relevant to the broader community.
        During the podcast, when discussing 2023 Threat Data, Andy noted that it is possible that mosques came under attack more frequently than the data suggested. Out of a total of 1027 incidents, mosques were targeted 5% of the time. That percentage, 5%, accounts for the overall number of mosques in the United States and correctly reflects the percentage of mosques that were targeted in 2023.
        What is FB-ISAO and what DHS is doing for the faith-based community.
        The general threat environment and how current geopolitical events are impacting that.

Over the following two weeks in April 2021, he and other online predators threatened to send the image to the girl’s classmates in Oklahoma unless she live-streamed degrading and violent acts, the girl’s mother told The Washington Post. They coerced her into carving their screen names deep into her thigh, drinking from a toilet bowl and beheading a pet hamster — all as they watched in a video chatroom on the social media platform Discord. The pressure escalated until she faced one final demand: to kill herself on camera. Related: There Are Dark Corners of the Internet. Then There's 764.
