Question 1: Describe homeland security as it is defined in the various U.S. national security strategies and policies.
In your readings, you have been provided a variety of definitions, overall objectives, and other such information related to the overall concepts under discussion.
Drawing upon this material and that discovered during your own research, construct a response that provides the following related to both homeland security and
homeland defense. For each (provide defined sections), offer information related to its primary missions, tasks, duties, responsibilities, operations, etc. which are
identified for each broad initiative. Also, provide information that addresses any responsibilities and efforts that are shared between the two; where heightened
levels of coordination are needed. Lastly, provide your own definition of homeland security.
Question 2: Assess the critical infrastructure protection programs of the United States.Critical infrastructure is defined in the National Infrastructure Protection
Plan as “Systems and assets, whether physical or virtual, so vital that the incapacity or destruction of such may have a debilitating impact on the security, economy,
public health or safety, environment, or any combination of these matters, across any Federal, State, regional, territorial, or local jurisdiction” (DHS 2009, 109).
From this definition, one can reasonably presume that protection of these assets is vital to the well being of the United States and as such is an essential element of
homeland security. Drawing upon provided readings and outside research, offer your assessment of the capability of the nation’s current infrastructure protection
efforts regarding this infrastructure and key resources. For identified vulnerabilities and areas of weakness, how should they be addressed?
