This analysis identifies innovative, fortified solutions to homeland security. Through promoting state and local government agencies to generate strong relations with larger national and international government agencies, this study aims to enhance existing counter-terrorism and counter-cyberterrorism measures. As such, this analysis provides an in-depth description of both terrorism and cyberterrorism, their evolution, the manifold forms they take, and the principal countries and entities that pose the greatest threats to the world in terms of their previous and ongoing efforts to engage in terrorist and cyberterrorist acts of catastrophic proportion. Further, a serious examination of America's homeland security efforts is provides. From this evaluation, original protective actions and solutions against threats to homeland security are suggested and generated through a method of nuance and improvement of traditional counter-terrorism and counter-cyberterrorism practices. A discussion session, along with ideas for future research and direction, is offered as a means to conclude this study
