Which is an example of a Level 1 Security Threat?

• A. Irrational behavior that creates the potential for physical conflict, non-violent threatening behavior, verbal harassment
• B. Punching, Kicking, Hitting
• C. Weapons displayed/used
• D. Imminent threat of death

Answer: (A)

Level 1 security threats focus on behavior that could escalate into a conflict but does not involve physical violence yet. Irrational or unstable behavior that creates the potential for physical conflict, along with non-violent threats and verbal harassment, signals risk and the need for awareness and de-escalation rather than an immediate physical response. This is the best match because it represents an early-stage concern where escalation is possible but no actual violence, weapons, or imminent deadly harm is occurring. The other options describe situations involving actual violence, weapons, or an imminent deadly threat, which would be higher-level security concerns.
