This goal centers creating a culture of creativity, diversity and

The statement that intelligence is central to everything the DHS does is accurate and reflects the seven strategic goals of the agency. It also shows how critical information and intelligence are in unifying the diverse Stakeholders of the agency, and how it serves as a hub of intelligence for the defense and law enforcement communities as well.

Homeland Security and Preparedness, Response, Activities and Programs in Disaster Response or Disaster Recovery The focus of this study is the homeland security issue as it relates to the preparedness of the U.S.A. government and citizens in response to the emergencies that may emerge.

At the same time, officials report an uptick in corruption-related investigations. Since October 2004, 136 Customs and Border Protection employees have been indicted on or convicted of corruption-related charges."

Author Ranum continues, "That's how the federal government's computer systems became an incompatible mess: Each agency does its own product selection, and no effort is made to coordinate" (Ranum, 2004, p. 171). Even today, Homeland Security cannot coordinate the computers of all the
