California's network for sharing terrorism-related intelligence among federal, state, local, and private-sector partners is built around:
Explanation
Fusion Centers are the central national framework for state/local intelligence sharing post-9/11, supported by DHS and managed by host agencies. California operates the State Threat Assessment Center (STAC) in Sacramento and several regional Fusion Centers including JRIC (Los Angeles area), NCRIC (Northern California), and Orange County Intelligence Assessment Center. These integrate federal partners (FBI Field Offices, DHS Intelligence) with state and local law enforcement and private-sector liaisons. Private security firms participate through SAR submissions. The other options describe partial pieces of intelligence collection, not the framework.
