Homeland Security Operational Continuum
Homeland Security Operational Continuum :
The operational continuum for homeland security consists of prevent, protect, respond, and recover. It represents phases of operations that homeland security officials and stakeholders take to address potential and actual homeland security incidents. Operations commence with prevention and protection efforts to, if possible, stop bad things from happening and minimize consequences. If bad things cannot be prevented, protection efforts continue, while response operations commence. Recovery operations build on response operations and are necessary to mitigate the consequences of incidents. (DHS, Chapter 2, Capstone Doctrine Pub Draft, 2008, p. 2-5)
