CNA Safety & Security Team

CNA Safety & Security assisted government agencies in responding to the attacks of September 11, 2001, with researchers and operations analysts supporting response to the terrorist attacks and the incidents of anthrax contamination that followed. Today, we work at every level of homeland security.

The Safety & Security team has, and continues to build, a knowledge base that is critical to developing effective prevention, mitigation, response, and recovery capabilities. The team combines practical experience with a strong record of academic achievement. Team members have held senior management positions in homeland security agencies at federal, state, and local levels. They also have extensive experience in the design of exercises and games, are knowledgeable about critical homeland security technologies, and have worked closely with homeland security professionals in the field. In addition, 90 percent have advanced degrees and more than half hold Ph.Ds.

Vice President and Director:  Tim Beres      Managing Directors: Monica Giovachino, Leslie-Anne Levy
