On September 11, 2001, the United States of America a free and open society with numerous points of vulnerability found itself at war against a coordinated terrorist threat. Obligated to secure the Homeland the United States Government scrambled to develop measures that would uphold societal values while providing an in-depth defense capable of ensuring a more secure society. By executive order agencies were created to protect the Homeland. The full effectiveness and efficiency of those newly created agencies and processes remains in question. Some will argue that they are fully effective while others emphatically proclaim them a complete failure. This paper uses U.S. airline security as a basis for analyzing the bureaucratic organizations created to deal with the terrorist threat. It begins with a review of airlines security on 9/11. The main discussion describes and explains the actions taken subsequent to 9/11 including an evaluation of the strengths and identification of the weaknesses and flaws. The paper concludes with a recommended strategy that would if implemented provide a more secure U.S. airline industry.
