Abstract In recent years our security, privacy, safety and our way of life has been invaded by individuals around the world. Today this great nation has rebuilt our national security and created the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Their main focus is in developing methods that can protect us from future threats and implement security procedures that will keep us safe. Some of these policies and guidelines have now become laws that have no margin for error and show no compassion for those that chose to invade our country. Although these policies were established to protect us they have changed the way we view a threat and even our own government. This change has pushed some to see the DHS as a potential threat to their constitutional rights. As the DHS continues to evolve, they have created new ideas to help us become aware of what possible threats can be like in the XXI century. These procedures help invoke a better understanding of what measurements we can take to secure ourselves in case of an emergency while we wait for our government to take action.
Have you ever wondered what the Department of Homeland Security does on a daily basis or what it really means to our leaders and what are they doing to keep you and your love ones safe? Well we can start by saying that Homeland Security is defined as The planning for, anticipation of, prevention of, reaction of, fight against, and response to threats and aggressions to US territory, domestic population, and crisis management, as well as consequence management, and other domestic civil support. In simpler words this means the DHS was established to protect the U.S from enemies whom are foreign and domestic. Today the DHS has identified and classified its threats in levels using crime reporting
