Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano is scheduled to speak about the “State of Homeland Security” at George Washington University today. Napolitano is expected to announce the end of the five-color threat advisory code that has been used since 2002. CNN reports that the new system will be called the National Terror Advisory System and will focus on threats in specific locations. This change was recommended by the Homeland Security Advisory Council in September 2009. The color-coded chart will be phased out over the next 90 days.
