Where does the NCS reside organizationally within the Department of Homeland Security?
In March 2003, the NCS was placed under the Assistant Secretary for Infrastructure Protection, part of the Under Secretary for Information Analysis and Infrastructure Protection (IAIP) Directorate. Following the implementation of the Secretary of Homeland Security’s “Second Stage Review” in the fall of 2005, the NCS and National Cyber Security Division (NCSD) moved under the Assistant Secretary for Cyber Security and Telecommunications – part of the Preparedness Directorate. On April 1, 2007, the NCS, along with NCSD and the newly formed Office of Emergency Communications, became part of the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Cyber Security and Communications, within the DHS National Protection and Programs Directorate.
