Background
Our Nation's critical infrastructures must be
protected to ensure our National defense, economic
prosperity and quality of life. The National
Infrastructure Protection Center (NIPC) was formed in
1998 to coordinate the efforts to protect infrastructures.
The NIPC
brings together government, industry, and academia to
foster awareness, monitor threats and coordinate the
response to cyber and physical attacks. InfraGard is an
association being formed by the NIPC to exchange
information concerning the protection of the information
infrastructure.
National InfraGard(TM)
NIPC, in partnership with the elected InfraGard
National Executive Board, will coordinate InfraGard
activities at the national level. The National InfraGard
Program now has over 56 regional chapters affiliated with
FBI Field Division Offices.
InfraGard(TM) of Minnesota
InfraGard of Minnesota is affiliated with the FBI's
Minneapolis Field Division,
which has responsibility for the states of North Dakota,
South Dakota and Minnesota.
The InfraGard of Minnesota Chapter may be subdivided into
multiple local chapters.
Other sub-region or state chapters, such as Fargo, North
Dakota,
and Sioux Falls, South Dakota, may be established as
needed.
Program Objective
InfraGard of Minnesota will provide forums that
integrate law enforcement, security, and information
technolgy communities to cultivate threat awareness and
exchange ideas on preventing, assessing and recovering
from attacks to the region's critical infrastructure.
These open forums are critical to preventing and
potentially prosecuting cases
that involve physical or cyber attacks including digital
disruptions to informaton services.
Your Investment in the
Program
The success of this program depends on active
participation and ongoing contributions
from the entire community served. Your investment of time,
talent, technical skills and financial support
will help ensure this organization achieves its full
potential and delivers
useful and usable critcal infrastructre protection
insights.
Benefits of Participation
As a particpating member of InfraGard, you will be
invited to bi-monthly chapter meetings and educational
seminars. You will receive security advisories via the
alert network and assistance from the NIPC's Help Desk,
and may be granted access to the secure membership
website.
Most importantly, you will become a member of a network
of proactive people interested
in helping protect the critical infrastructures that
support our community.
