How would you naturally say that something is " **under threat** "? For
example:

>   * The delivery is **under threat**
>   * The contract is **under threat**
>   * The agreed deadline is **under threat**
>

There are verbs like 脅かす｛おどかす｝and 脅迫｛きょうはく｝する, but I think they are used in
cases of physical danger like natural disasters for example.
