The President's National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee (NSTAC) has provided industry expertise and advice regarding national security and emergency preparedness (NS/EP) issues associated with telecommunications and information systems since 1982. Members of the NSTAC are typically chief executives of the Nation's leading telecommunications, network service provider, information technology, finance, and aerospace companies. Motivated by patriotism and a desire to meet common threats to our national security and safety, the members devote their time and resources to examining high-priority NS/EP issues. Early recommendations from the NSTAC to the President created systems and processes that have proved invaluable in many national security and emergency events, including the September 11, 2001, attacks and Hurricane Katrina in August 2005. The reality of terrorism, in addition to traditional national security concerns has made an industry and Government partnership more critical than ever before. The NSTAC is systematically working with Government NS/EP stakeholders and subject matter experts from industry, Government, and academia to formulate recommendations to the President for the ever-changing telecommunications and information systems environment. The NSTAC continues to anticipate potential challenges created by shifting requirements, technologies and threats, and works to prepare high-priority counsel in various NS/EP arenas
