Our 1000+ membership
is voluntary yet exclusive and
is comprised of individuals from both the public and
private sector. The main goal of the Washington, DC Nations
Capital Chapter of InfraGard is to promote ongoing
dialogue, education, community outreach and timely
communication between public and private members.
Furthermore, to achieve and sustain risk-based target
levels of capability to prevent, protect against, respond
to, and recover from all hazards or events, and to minimize
their impact on lives, property, and the economy.
InfraGard members gain access to vital information and
education that enables them to in turn provide assistance
to prevent and address terrorism and other transnational
crimes. InfraGard members are provided threat advisories,
alerts and warnings and access to a robust secure web-VPN
site and e-mail. InfraGard also helps promote an effective
liaison with local, state and federal agencies, to include
the Department of Homeland Security.
The FBI retained InfraGard as an FBI sponsored program, and
will work closely with DHS in support of the CIP mission.
The FBI will further facilitate InfraGard's continuing role
in CIP activities and further develop InfraGard's ability
to support the FBI's investigative mission, especially as
it pertains to counterterrorism and cyber crimes. The FBI
and Department of Homeland Security Office of
Infrastructure Protection are currently executing an
InfraGard Partnership Program Plan under a Memorandum of
Understanding signed in December 2007.
