Critical Infrastructure: Assessment of the Department of Homeland Security's Report on the Results of Its Critical Infrastructure Partnership Streamlining Efforts.

摘要

A fundamental component of DHS's efforts to protect and secure our nation's CI is partnerships among public and private stakeholders. Within DHS, NPPD is responsible for working with public and private sector CI partners and leads the coordinated national effort to mitigate risk to the nation's CI through the development and implementation of the CI protection program. Using a partnership approach, NPPD works with owners and operators of the nation's CI to develop, facilitate, and sustain strategic relationships and information sharing, including the sharing of best practices. NPPD also works with public and private partners to coordinate efforts to establish and operate various councils intended to protect CI and strengthen incident response.
