US officials in California have been seeking security advice from French officials, as the San Francisco area prepares to host the Super Bowl.
Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said his team had been in "constant" contact since the Paris attacks.
Elsewhere, hundreds are protesting over plans to clear away homeless residents in central San Francisco.
The Super Bowl is the climax of the American football season, and a crowd of 70,000 is expected for the game.
The Denver Broncos will be taking on the Carolina Panthers in the biggest National Football League (NFL) game of the year, as part of a landmark Super Bowl 50 - marking half a century of the big game.
'Every threat picture different'
Thousands of police and security officers are expected to be deployed across the San Francisco Bay area, which covers nine different counties. The game will be held in Santa Clara, about 40 miles (64km) south of San Francisco.

SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL Last week, a golf cart sales person was at the stadium re: a 350 golf cart rental for the Super Bowl game. She reported seeing many Army guys everywhere with M-16s and Hummers. Moving around the stadium was difficult due to being wanded every time she went into a different section of the stadium.
