Deep in the woods of suburban Maryland the men and women of the security details for President-elect Trump and Vice President-elect Pence are preparing for the worst on Inauguration Day. “We train for the scope of issues that can come up,” one senior U.S. Secret Service special agent told Fox News before a training exercise Tuesday at the agency’s James J. Rowley Training Center. “Every scenario has a different response and we don’t want to be seeing these scenarios for the first time on January 20,” Secret Service Director Joseph Clancy told Fox News’ Catherine Herridge Friday. The Secret Service will also deploy cybersecurity personnel throughout the Washington area to monitor the digital infrastructure of locations along the parade route. Given the inauguration’s designation as a National Special Security Event (NSSE) – the U.S. government’s highest profile event security classification – the Secret Service is tasked with leading all protective efforts.
