The myth of homeland security

About this book

"In this book, Marcus Ranum explains what's wrong with today's homeland security policy and why it might - or might not - be fixable. The Myth of Homeland Security exposes the bad ideas that have already been implemented in the government's efforts to develop new procedures for airline security, to stop terrorists from hacking into secret databases, and to communicate with the public about threats. He presents ideas for change, but argues that homeland security will always be a matter of degree, and not an absolute."--Jacket.
