CISA’s Vehicle Ramming Self-Assessment Tool was developed in partnership with the Chicago Police Department to assist critical infrastructure owners and operators and federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies with evaluating areas of interest against the risk of a vehicle-ramming style of attack. It’s a web-based resource comprised of a series of simple questions that evaluate various components of a facility to assess potential vulnerabilities to a vehicle ramming attack. Based on responses, the tool provides recommended actions to reduce risk; it also includes access to a multitude of informational resources.
