Physical Infrastructure Protection White Papers

Domestic Intelligence and National Security Reform Proposals

Overview In the post-September 11th era, a variety of measures have been advocated to improve domestic counterterrorism intelligence. These efforts are due to the restricted and haphazard procedures for interagency information sharing in the United States preceding the terrorist strikes. A majority of the criticism focused upon the procedures within the Federal Bureau of Investigation (hereinafter, FBI), and some called for the establishment of a new domestic security service that would focus on prevention, rather than simply investigating terrorist acts once they occur.
