Heightened security at U.S airports (and overseas?)

Airport security is being increased at American airports amid reports two terror networks are working together on a bomb that could evade existing measures.

Washington Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson ordered beefed up security at foreign airports from where aircraft fly directly to the US.

So here's my question - how do they get airports overseas to beef up security?

How or why would an airport say in Pakistan improve security when the TSA have no jurisdiction?

Also, what kind of new measures might they be?
