The policies and practices of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) risk undermining its security and compromising its science and technology programs. This is the overarching finding of the Commission on Science and Security, tasked by DOE to assess the challenges faced in operating premier scientific institutions in the twenty-first century, while protecting and enhancing national security. In support of its finding, the commission identified five fundamental problems: (1) continuing management dysfunction; (2) poor collaboration between the science and security/counterintelligence communities; (3) lack of an effective system for risk-based security management practices; (4) inadequate investment in new tools and technologies for its security and counterintelligence programs; and (5) insufficient attention to cyber security.

Businesses, institutions, families, and individuals rely on security measures to keep themselves and their assets safe. In The Art and Science of Security, author Joel Jesus M. Supan provides a practical and effective resource to show how the public can protect themselves against dangers and hazards. He helps leaders understand the real meaning of security-one of their primary responsibilities. The Art and Science of Security teaches and guides team leaders on how to preserve and protect the team's resources in order to achieve their objectives. Supan, with more than twenty-five years of experience in the security industry, provides a thorough understanding of the principles and aspects of a wide range of security concerns, including personnel, informational, operational, environmental, physical, and reputational. It discusses the guard system, details how to develop a corporate security program, shows how to conduct a security assessment, and tells how to manage a crisis. Supan demonstrates that the need for security goes beyond what is generally held to be the domain of guards, law enforcement agencies, and the military. Security is an important facet of every person's well-being.

Based on a series of regional meetings on university campuses with officials from the national security community and academic research institutions, this report identifies specific actions that should be taken to maintain a thriving scientific research environment in an era of heightened security concerns. Actions include maintaining the open exchange of scientific information, fostering a productive environment for international scholars in the U.S., reexamining federal definitions of sensitive but unclassified research, and reviewing policies on deemed export controls. The federal government should establish a standing entity, preferably a Science and Security Commission, that would review policies regarding the exchange of information and the participation of foreign-born scientists and students in research.

Both sides of a sensitive problem are assessed by Professor Gellhorn in this penetrating analysis of national security and its effect upon scientific progress. The costs and advantages of secrecy in certain areas of science and the conflict between national safety and individual rights in the administration of our federal loyalty program are presented; all the arguments are objectively weighed. The book answers such questions as: Can young scientists be well trained when publication and teaching are not free? Have we gone far enough-or too far-in avoiding "security risks" in important scientific establishments? How does the federal drive against "potentially disloyal" persons actually work? Do "fear of the smear" and crude methods discourage public service by American scientists? This study, a unit of an investigation of control of subversive activities supported by grants from the Rockefeller Foundation, is based upon two years of research and numerous field interviews of scientists, administrators, defense officials, and educators. Security, Loyalty, and Science is a volume in the series Cornell Studies in Civil Liberty, of which Robert E. Cushman is advisory editor.

The national security controls that regulate access to and export of science and technology are broken. As currently structured, many of these controls undermine our national and homeland security and stifle American engagement in the global economy, and in science and technology. These unintended consequences arise from policies that were crafted for an earlier era. In the name of maintaining superiority, the U.S. now runs the risk of becoming less secure, less competitive and less prosperous. Beyond "Fortress America" provides an account of the costs associated with building walls that hamper our access to global science and technology that dampen our economic potential. The book also makes recommendations to reform the export control process, ensure scientific and technological competitiveness, and improve the non-immigrant visa system that regulates entry into the United States of foreign science and engineering students, scholars, and professionals. Beyond "Fortress America" contains vital information and action items for the President and policy makers that will affect the United States' ability to compete globally. Interested parties-including military personnel, engineers, scientists, professionals, industrialists, and scholars-will find this book a valuable tool for stemming a serious decline affecting broad areas of the nation's security and economy.

Security Science integrates the multi-disciplined practice areas of security into a single structured body of knowledge, where each chapter takes an evidence-based approach to one of the core knowledge categories. The authors give practitioners and students the underlying scientific perspective based on robust underlying theories, principles, models or frameworks. Demonstrating the relationships and underlying concepts, they present an approach to each core security function within the context of both organizational security and homeland security. The book is unique in its application of the scientific method to the increasingly challenging tasks of preventing crime and foiling terrorist attacks. Incorporating the latest security theories and principles, it considers security from both a national and corporate perspective, applied at a strategic and tactical level. It provides a rational basis for complex decisions and begins the process of defining the emerging discipline of security science.
