Who enters records related to individuals posing a threat to protectees?

The correct answer is that records related to individuals posing a threat to protectees are entered by the US Secret Service. This agency is specifically tasked with protecting high-profile individuals, including the President and Vice President of the United States, their immediate families, and visiting foreign dignitaries. As part of their protective mission, the Secret Service conducts thorough background checks and threat assessments. When they identify individuals who may pose a threat to the safety of their protectees, it is their responsibility to document these findings and enter the relevant information into their databases.

This process is critical to ensuring the safety and security of the individuals under their protection, allowing agents to share threat-related information both within the agency and with other law enforcement entities as necessary.

Local law enforcement typically handles community safety and crime in their jurisdictions but may not directly manage records related to federal protectee threats. FBI agents focus on federal investigations, intelligence, and preventing terrorism, but again, they would collaborate with the Secret Service regarding protectee-specific threats rather than enter such records themselves. Interpol operates internationally to facilitate cooperation between law enforcement agencies across different countries, and their focus is more on transnational crime rather than the specific protective measures undertaken by the Secret Service.
