Introduction

The appointment of a new president with the responsibility of overseeing Homeland Security, particularly in combating terrorism and cybercrime, signifies a critical juncture in national and international security. Effective management of these threats requires a strategic approach centered on research-supported priorities, international collaboration, and comprehensive understanding of evolving threats. This paper proposes an outline for research questions that will underpin a detailed presentation to the president and cabinet members. The goal is to identify strategic priorities, key countries for collaboration, and influential individuals or agencies to consult with, thereby enhancing the United States' global security posture against terrorism and cybercrimes.

Research Questions

4. How can technological advancements, such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, and cyber forensic tools, be integrated into existing security frameworks to enhance detection, prevention, and response capabilities?

Conclusion

Addressing the multifaceted threats of terrorism and cybercrime demands a proactive, research-driven approach. The formulated questions aim to guide a comprehensive analysis of current threats, collaboration opportunities, and technological innovations. By focusing on these areas, the U.S. can develop a strategic, adaptable, and effective security plan that aligns with both national interests and global security objectives. Strategic international partnerships, leveraging cutting-edge technology, and fostering collaboration among key agencies and countries are paramount for advancing the U.S. position in combating these modern threats on the world stage.
