Maritime Homeland Security Summit

Strengthening partnerships to ensure the safety, security, and preparedness of the Pacific and Arctic Maritime Domains

To improve the safety of our Nation's maritime borders and ports, it is vital to ensure the widespread dissemination of successful initiatives and policy updates. IDGA’s Maritime Homeland Security Summit brings together policy makers, military and government executives, port authorities, law enforcement and solutions providers to exchange and disseminate best practices and opportunities to improve the security of our Nation's borders.

As our Nation faces the long-term struggle against radical extremism in a period of persistent conflict, those responsible for Maritime Security must be prepared to conduct operations across a broad spectrum of threats and hazards. Briefings will focus on issues affecting the Pacific Area of Responsibility as well as National initiatives to improve Maritime Security.

The event will focus on how DHS and their partner organizations are working together to protect our Maritime Borders.
