“Citing ‘significant progress,’ the Department of Homeland Security [DHS] Thursday [July 21, 2011] released a report looking at how far the U.S. has come in the past seven years to fulfilling specific 9/11 Commission recommendations. ‘Over the past decade, we have made great strides to secure our nation against a large attack or disaster, to protect critical infrastructure and cyber networks, and to engage a broader range of Americans in the shared responsibility for security,’ said DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano in a statement released by the department.”
