Published by on October 1, 2020

After reviewing the assignments, lectures, PowerPoint presentation, and readings, you will be prepared to discuss the importance of the I-STEP Program in supporting the mission of the DHS and have a better understanding of the many safety and security risks that exist within the various transportation components.. For this discussion, address the following question:

1. Does the I-STEP program further the homeland security mission? Why or why not? Be specific and provide examples.

2. Discuss which transportation component you think presents the greatest risk for the TSA to manage within the context of terrorist attacks and hazardous material accidents
