Homeland security intelligence

Order Description intelligence must be tailored to the needs of each specific client in the diverse homeland security customer set. Implicit in this theme is the assertion that in meeting this imperative, the intelligence product will be significantly different depending on the role of the customer. For example, consider the characteristics of the intelligence product produced for the Governor of New York to help him and his staff in the risk analysis and management process leading to appropriate funding levels in the New York State budget for cybersecurity as opposed to funding for counterterrorism. Now think about the intelligence product required by the federal immigration officer at a port of entry trying to spot an Al Quaida operative attempting to enter the US. Clearly, these two customers (one strategic, one tactical) whose positions require them to address very different dimensions of homeland security (resource allocation, border protection) demand and deserve very different intelligence products.
