Fully describe the overall concepts of homeland security and
homeland defense. Construct a response that provides the following related to
both homeland security and homeland defense:
Primary missions, tasks, responsibilities, operations, etc.
for:
Homeland Security and
Homeland Defense.
Highlight those areas that are shared between the two (what
overlaps between HLS and HLD?)
Lastly, recommend a definition for homeland security.
Using the overarching themes of the National Security
Strategy from 2017, provide your own recommendation for new National Strategy
for Counterterrorism (it must be nested under the NSS according to the
principle of strategic hierarchy). What key elements and focus areas would you
suggest for the part of a new CT strategy that is domestic focused (homeland
security, not overseas), and make sure to use the Ends, Ways, and Means
strategy framework.
Note: You should be aware of the fact that “homeland
security” is made up of much more than just DHS. That agency is only one
part of a larger Homeland Security Enterprise that includes [DHS] Departmental
leaders and components [the 7 field agencies including USCG, CBP, ICE, USSS,
etc], state, local, tribal, territorial and private sector partners and others.
Also remember there are many other essential federal agencies that play a role
in HLS, such as the very important DOJ where the FBI is the lead agency for
countering terrorism in the US (not DHS).
