The March 2006 furor over a Dubai firms attempt to purchase the
company managing some U.S. ports illustrates the difficult homeland
security challenges that exist at the nexus of privately owned
critical assets as well as global interdependence. Unfortunately,
nearly five years after the September 11 attacks on New York and
Washington, D.C., federal efforts to enlist the private sector in
bolstering homeland security remain largely stillborn. Neglected
Defense offers a thoughtful and tightly reasoned analysis of why
that is so. It presents a way forward for strengthening cooperation
between the private sector and government on homeland security. The
report begins by laying out the policy dilemma in detail. It offers
a recent history of the security role of the private sector, and
highlights specific problems that have kept public-private security
partnerships from maturing. It concludes with a series of
recommendationsfor Congress, the Bush administration, and the
private sectorto better secure the homeland.
