Publisher:	Government Institutes
Description:	This book (as well as the other titles in Government Institutes’s Critical Infrastruc- ture series) was written as a result of September 11. Food Supply Protection and Home- land Security, in particular, was fashioned in response to the critical needs of food production managers, food import managers, food infrastructure engineers, design engineers, agricultural managers at any level of food production, students—and for anyone with a general interest in the security of their food supply systems. It is impor- tant to note that our food supply system (as is the case with the other twelve critical in- frastructures) cannot be made immune to all possible intrusions and attacks; thus, it takes a concerted, well-thought-out effort to incorporate security upgrades in the retrofitting of existing systems and careful security planning for all new food manu- facturing and processing sites. These upgrades or design features need to address issues of monitoring, response, critical infrastructure redundancy, and recovery to minimize risk to individual facilities and the infrastructure as a whole.
