The 9/11 attacks dramatically altered the nation’s response to threats from terrorism. One of the most significant changes was the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. Nearly a decade after the attacks, what lessons have we learned from our efforts? How does Osama bin Laden’s death alter the terrain? And what can we expect in the next decade? Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano discussed these and other important questions as we approach the ten-year anniversary of this monumental episode in American history.
