Homeland Security Stakeholders
Overview
The federal homeland security effort is focused on supporting stakeholders
on the front lines—state, local, territorial, and tribal governments.
DHS and its mission partners are developing and delivering the capabilities
needed to prevent, protect, respond, and recover from disasters, emergencies,
and terrorist and criminal activities. The magnitude of this responsibility
is clear in the broad range of public and private sector stakeholders
that require protection and security.
