I am a member of a multi-agency Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF), which lead agency is the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). As a part of this task force, that consists of members from the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI), Homeland Security (HLS), Department of Defense (DOD), National Security Agency (NSA), Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and local law enforcement I have been selected as the lead planner of the task force to develop a Strategic Operational Plan Proposal (SOPP). Now, the purpose of this plan is to eliminate a terrorist group known as al-Qaeda from attempting to infiltrate the United States along the border of Mexico and the United States with two terror cells that consist of 12 individuals …show more content…
Furthermore, the National Security Agency (NSA) has reported that SIGINT between the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) and a Miami-based Russian OC has identified the transfer of two low-yield nuclear devices, therefore causing The Department of Homeland Security (HLS) to increase the threat level of the United States to an elevated level. Therefore, causing the Chicago based FBI to conduct an analysis on the threat level of O’Hare and Midway International Airports, the McCormick Place Convention Center, and the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago in order to determine if they are potential targets for the low-yield nuclear weapons. It has also been determine by the DEA and passed on to the FBI that there is a possibility that the GB gas could be used by the second terrorist cell against the Outfit. However, it is believed that the Russian gang is not aware that they are cooperating with al-Qaeda and that they may be in control of a nuclear device that could have catastrophic implications on their plan to take over The Outfit.
Therefore, as the operations officer for the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) it is my job to create a plan in order to stop these groups from causing major chaos as well as

Joint operation planning begins when an appropriate authority recognizes potential for military capability to be employed in response to a potential or actual crisis. At the strategic level, that authority—the president, SecDef, or

The first mission in the National Planning Framework is known as the National Prevention Framework. While the other frameworks focus on natural disasters and other hazards, the National Prevention Framework is the only framework that focuses solely on the prevention against acts of terrorism on U.S. soil (National Prevention Framework, 2013). The roles and responsibilities involved in the prevention of terrorism do not exclusively fall on the government, but rather a concerted effort by various local, state, tribal, territorial, Federal, non-profit and private sector entities. For this reason, it is important to understand the responsibilities of each entity, from the smallest role to the largest.
The major goal in any antiterrorism plan is to prevent the attack from ever occurring. Federal agencies are the primary actors that deal with terrorism, but they rely heavily on local police to assist in their mission. Local police forces are those that are likely to encounter any
The world today is a place where threats and danger can come from any place or any person. Terrorist organizations have been growing, and though the United States is not the only victim of terrorism, the US has been attacked multiple times by these types of groups. These vicious attacks have caused the citizens of the US to be fearful for what may come next. Some people believe that secret teams, which operate without any jurisdiction would be the most effective way to eliminate threats against the United States. Brad Taylor convinces readers that a team similar to The Task Force may be beneficial to the safety of United States citizens, by referencing his real life experience as a military operator.
Cooperation between the United States Military and the Department of Homeland Security is essential to combat threats to America. The threat of terrorism has evolved since the Department of Homeland Security (DOH) erected in 2002. The battle that America fights against terrorist groups protects our borders more than anything else. ISIS is the most prominent terrorist organization on the world stage right now, and we’re taking the fight to them. If we are able to push back and weaken, the opposing terrorist groups, then we will limit the potential of a terrorist attack on American soil. The best way to help the ISIS
The Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTFs) are responsible for defending our nation from terrorism. Its purpose is to broadly coordinate planning and responses to terrorist incidents. The first one was established in New York City in 1980. It is a multi-agency effort led by the Justice Department and Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI), designed to combine the resources of Federal, state, and local law enforcement. According to the article they are, “Small cells of highly trained, locally based, passionately committed investigators, analysts, linguist, SWAT experts, and other specialist from dozens of U.S. law enforcement intelligence agencies.” They have many different responsibilities such as chasing down leads, gathering evidence,
Strategic planning can dictate the success of any organization if properly planned as well as the failure of an organization if not implemented as planned. Strategic planning is all about making choices. It is a process designed to support leaders in being intentional about their goals and methods. Simply stated, strategic planning is a management tool, and like any management tool, it is used for one purpose only—to help an organization do a better job. This portion of the strategic plan will explain why an
In this research paper, I am going to discuss the plan that the Department of Homeland Security has set forth for the years of 2012-2016. This plan outlines the entire vision of the department to essentially accomplish their missions and goals. The plan consists of missions varying from border security to cyber security. We must not forget the men and women on the front line working hard to ultimately secure and provide safety for the United States of America.
The organizations that will be discussed are Century 21 Powerhouse Realty where I am employed at as a real estate agent and the Disney organization, which is an organization that has adopted total quality management. In the following paragraphs I will evaluate my organization’s mission, vision, goals, and objectives as well as discuss the relationship
Vital to this are on-going threat assessments. Effective threat assessment is the need for abundant, timely and useable intelligence, about potential terrorist sponsors, perpetrators, activities and targets, as well as intelligence to guide our prevention and preparation activities and programs. Despite the transnational nature of many terrorist groups, challenges to integrating foreign intelligence with domestic law enforcement information remains.
While the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is one, centralized agency, securing the homeland involves the cooperation and collaboration of many, different agencies and organizations ranging from local law enforcement to national agencies such as the NSA, CIA, and FBI. Each of these agencies contributes to the development of homeland security intelligence. By carefully analyzing and commenting on the objectives, tasks, strengths, weaknesses, and roles of each agency, a larger picture emerges regarding the capabilities and limitation of intelligence in supporting homeland security efforts.

In order to help member countries report terrorist activity, Interpol has issued practical guidelines on the type of information required. Member countries are also encouraged to report on other crimes which may be linked to terrorism, such as suspicious financial transactions, weapons trafficking, money laundering, falsified travel and identity documents, and seizures of nuclear, chemical and biological materials. The growing possibility of terrorists launching attacks with biological or chemical weapons is a particularly urgent concern. A dedicated bio-terrorism unit at the General Secretariat works to implement various projects with the close co-operation of Interpol National Central Bureaus and regional offices. As the planning for terrorist attacks often spans countries and regions, fighting terrorism requires the same level of effort and cooperation among nations. Spearheading Interpol's anti-terrorism efforts is the Fusion Task Force (FTF), created in September 2002 in the wake of the alarming rise in the scale and sophistication of international terrorist attacks. Task Force Fusion’s primary objectives are to identify terrorist groups and their membership, solicit, collect, and share information and intelligence, provide analytical support, and to enhance the capacity of member countries to address the threats of terrorism.
