A New Intelligence Agency? Maybe
The RAND Corporation has provided the Homeland Security Department with a report on realigning domestic intelligence gathering. The report, “Reorganizing US Domestic Intelligence: Assessing the Options” was written by Greg Treverton, and he joined me to talk about it.
Please Tell Me What That Means
New members of the Navy have The Bluejacket’s Manual to educate them about protocol and operations. Now the author of that book has written “NavCivGuide: A Handbook for Civilians in the United States Navy.” Thomas Cutler told me about why he wrote the book, what’s in it, and what you’ll learn when you read it.
Clearance Backlog: All Clear
Security clearances have been getting some scrutiny lately, because of the impending transition and because of the backlog that had been stacked up for a long time. Kathy Dillaman, Associate Director of the Federal Investigative Services Division at the Office of Personnel Management, told me about fixing the backlog, preparing for transition, and what it’s like to work in an office that’s built into a limestone mine (seriously!).
Working Together
18 working groups make up the National Infrastructure Advisory Council. The Council provides guidance for the Homeland Security Department to deal with security challenges. Bob Steffan, Assistant Secretary for the Office of Infrastructure Protection in the National Protection and Programs Directorate at DHS, told me how the Council works, and what they do.
