Pennsylvania Homeland Security addresses the
security needs of the state. Developed in response to 9/11 the
Homeland Security Office is focusing on a range of important security needs
and services, including transportation-related issues. Potential
high-threat topics — e.g., nuclear power plants, DOE shipments, chemical
industry, major distribution of gas and electric utilities, and other target
infrastructure — are all covered through the Office’s Homeland Security
mission. Initially, the ITS Architecture focuses on security issues as
part of incident management. In the future, as the Office’s mandate is
refined, additional security services and needs are likely to be reflected
in the Architecture.
