Answer

B
DHS focuses on war and disaster as the two most significant events to bring together government and businesses—from WWII citizen involvement to 21st century organizations such as FEMA.
C
DHS provides ways for private security to enter into government agencies so that the private security companies can become financially successful.
D

DHS’s influence reaches across several areas where public agencies and private security work together. Its initiatives support information sharing, protection of critical infrastructure, port security, and cybersecurity. Choice D best captures this broad range; the other choices either focus on historical background, only a few events, or private companies’ financial success.
