Preparedness
Homeland security, emergency management, and public safety officials across the nation are re-examining their preparedness strategies. They are not alone—the private sector is facing security challenges of its own. With limited dollars and tight schedules, it is critical to know precisely where to apply scarce resources to have the most impact on protection.
