This is the first authoritative source showing how food security is a solvable problem discussing solutions that are already available, and how counter measures will build on principles, practices and structures established in the industry. Explaining how the food industry can counter threats with a Threat Analysis Critical Control Points (TACCP) program that builds on the elements already familiar through HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points). Coverage includes: nature of the threats; historical perspective on attacks on the food system; vulnerabilities in the food system in the US and in supply chains from outside the US; operational risk management pre-harvest, post-harvest and during transportation; physical security; employee surety programs; process security; detection of threat agents in food; crisis and consequence management; legal issues. Private sector and government officials now involved in HACCP programs, as well as industrial security personnel about to take their specialized expertise into the food sector, will find Homeland Security and the Food Supply is the definitive resource for a new field - the deliberate contamination of our food supply.
