According to the New York Times, a U.S. Secret Service agent is placed at the base of the staircase Biden uses to disembark or board Air Force One every time

The inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden will take place in a Washington on edge, after the deadly riot at the U.S. Capitol unleashed a wave of fear and unmatched security concerns. And law enforcement officials are contending not only with the potential for outside threats but also with rising concerns about an insider attack by troops with a duty to protect him.

A uniformed Secret Service officer shot and wounded a man during a confrontation near the White House that led to President Donald Trump being abruptly escorted out of a briefing room during a televised news conference Monday, authorities said.

Employees of the Special Department of Cybercrime at the State Security Service, under the supervision of the Prosecutor's Office, cut through the criminal activity of four men who carried out online sexual exploitation and cyberbullying of children from the country.

Several cyber-crime cases dismantled by Romanian police in cooperation with international law enforcement show that the Eastern European country is still a hub for cyber-related crime.

Italian and Romanian police recently dismantled a cybercrime gang that stole 1 million euros from hundreds of customers of two major European banks, Europol announced on Thursday.

The U.S. Secret Service bolstered security at the White House late March 18 after a man was arrested after making threats at one of its checkpoints, an official said.

CNN reported that the man made a threat claiming he had a bomb in his car, and that he was immediately arrested and the car in which he was travelling seized.

The White House this week was sent a letter that tested positive for cyanide, US media reported Tuesday, in yet another piece of bad news for the Secret Service.
