Explore the evolution of city security from the walled cities of the past to the challenges of securing unwalled cities in the modern era. Discover the role of the nation state, trade routes, and systematic infrastructure protection in securing our cities.

Phase II:Systematic Infrastructure Protection HSPD-7 (issued December 17, 2003) directed the development of a National Infrastructure Protection Plan (NIPP). HSPD-7 specifies the following key content elements: • A strategy to identify, prioritize, and coordinate CI/KR protection; • Descriptions of activities which support each element of the strategy; • A summary of initiatives for sharing CI/KR information and for providing CI/KR threat warning data; and • Coordination and integration with other Federal emergency management and preparedness activities.

The Initial Problems of Federal Strategy Problem I Distinguishing Between Critical and Non Critical Infrastructure
Critical Infrastructure/Key Resources (CI/KR) Critical Infrastructure/Key Resources (CI/KR) include the assets, systems, networks and functions that provide vital services to the nation. (NIPP, June 2006, Page 7)
Critical Infrastructure: Definitions • “Key Resources” are the publicly or privately controlled resources essential to the minimal operations of the economy and government • “Key Assets” are the individual targets whose destruction could cause large-scale injury, death, or destruction of property, and/or profoundly damage our national prestige and confidence
Problem III: Horizontal Coordination The NIPP was officially released on June 30, 2006.
Problem IV: Vertical Coordination Coordination With States Coordination with the Private Sector
