- Mission [1]
- DHS was founded, in part, to facilitate the exchange of information between and among Federal agencies, State, local, and
Tribal governments, and the private sector. DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano’s holistic approach for homeland security includes
information sharing across diverse disciplines – law enforcement, public health, emergency management and critical infrastructure
– in support of five mission areas: * Preventing Terrorism and Enhancing Security * Securing and Managing Our Borders * Enforcing
and Administering Our Immigration Laws * Safeguarding and Securing Cyberspace * Ensuring Resilience to Disasters
