The National Preparedness Goal
A secure and resilient Nation with the capabilities required across the whole community to prevent,
protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from the threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk.
Defined by the capability target measures of the core capabilities within the mission areas of prevent,
protect, mitigate, respond, and recover
National Preparedness Goal Supporting Components
Core capabilities:
• Distinct highly interdependent elements necessary for our success
Capability targets: • Performance threshold(s) for each core capability that will guide our allocation of resources to support
national preparedness
Emphasis on whole community:• Whole community includes all members of society, including individuals, communities, the private and
nonprofit sectors, faith-based organizations, and Federal, state, and local governments• The Goal seeks to enable the whole community to contribute to and benefit from national
preparedness
Strategic National Risk Assessment:• In accordance with PPD-8, a Strategic National Risk Assessment was conducted• The SNRA identified a wide range of threats and hazards that pose a significant risk to the nation,
affirming the need for an all-hazards, capability-based approach to preparedness planning

National Level Exercise 12
• Part of a series of congressionally mandated preparedness exercises
designed to educate and prepare participants for potential catastrophic
events
• The NLE 2012 process will examine the Nation’s ability to coordinate and
implement prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery plans and
capabilities pertaining to a significant cyber event or a series of related
cyber events.
• Unique to NLE 2012 will be an emphasis on the shared responsibility
among the Federal Government; state, local, tribal nations and territories
(SLTT); the private sector; and international partners to secure cyberspace
and respond together to a significant cyber incident.
Universities Emergency & Risk Managers were provided briefings and allowed to
frame out how a cyber attack would affect Boston and the Region.
Integrating HIED Partners in NLE 12
The Boston Consortium is a collection of colleges and universities that FEMA has engaged to assist with the design and
development of NLE 12 Cyber affects on the Boston Area.
• The Advanced Cyber Security Center is a collaborative, cross-sector research facility working to address the most critical and sophisticated cyber security challenges.
• The ACSC is a group of public and private organizations that track and share Cyber Threat information. Presently there are 22 members to include: The Federal Reserve Bank, Boston University, Northeastern University, MIT, Harvard, Bank of Boston, Fidelity, and the Comm of Mass. This cross section of public and private entities forms a strong alliance against Cyber Threats.
