Background Information
The United States homeland security is the country’s national security umbrella body that ensures the safety of American soil and the American people. The department of homeland security (DHS) provides protection and residence against terrorism, among other hazards that may threaten the safety of Americans. The DHS ensures that the United States is not vulnerable to terrorism or any form of disaster; however, in case an emergency or attack occurs in American soil, the DHS must be prepared to ensure that such attack has minimum damage to the properties and lives of the American people. It should be noted that homeland security is not only prepared for terrorist attacks, but it is also prepared for handling any form of disaster across the United States. The DHS operates in partnership with security agencies of all other states to ensure that all the states in American are prepared to respond to any form of a human-made or natural disaster. Therefore, the homeland security department must always be ready to react and accommodate a plethora of scenarios and situations ranging from a natural disaster to any form of terrorism. Accordingly, the DHS provides training and resources to enable state security agencies to prevent, mitigate, prepare, protect, and recover from any form of disaster.
