  1. Technologies for Critical Incident Preparedness 2008 DHS Science & Technology Directorate Brief Chicago • October 31, 2008 Jay M. Cohen Under Secretary for Science and Technology U.S. Department of Homeland Security

  2. First Responders:Managing Risk Locally to Make the Nation Safer

  3. TERRORIST ROADMAP Gov’t, economy, societal instability Nuclear ? HIGHER Cyber IEDs ? Trans Nat’l Migration Biological LIKELIHOOD OF OCCURRENCE Chemical LOWER HIGHER Physical Critical Infrastructure Attack Radiological ? ? LOWER CONSEQUENCE OF OCCURRENCE BOMBS, BORDERS, BUGS, BUSINESS, BODIES & BUILDINGS

  4. The Challenge: Strengthening Security in a Connected, Internet-Enabled World

  5. DHS S&T Investment PortfolioBalance of Risk, Cost, Impact, and Time to Delivery Customer Focused, Output Oriented
