Homeland Security Today (HSToday) germinated in 2004 as a monthly print magazine published by Virginia-based KMD Media LLC with an enthusiastic and dedicated ensemble of highly respected, veteran award-winning editors, writers, contributors and illustrators propelled by an industry-tested publishing executive with three decades of savvy know-how. 

 

Its target audience are officials with homeland security responsibilities at all levels of federal, state and local government, as well as executives of the industries that manufacture the technologies government uses to ensure the nation is protected from terrorism and prepared for every type of man-made and natural disaster. These are the policy- and decision-makers who make the tough choices and the major purchases and sales of the technologies that are employed to keep us safe and secure. 

 

The first edition of ΓÇ£HSTodayΓÇ¥ magazine, as it was originally titled, expressly targeted, was edited and designed for AmericaΓÇÖs new post-9/11 homeland security landscape. In unprecedented short order, the HSToday brand quickly became the undisputed independent media that homeland security and industry officials, executives and authorities routinely turn to for accurate, trustworthy and reliable homeland security news, investigations, analysis, context and perspective. 

 

From day one of its launch, the Homeland Security Today brand briskly grew to become a multiple award-winning news medium with far-reaching recognition and respect -- recognition and respect that it has continued to command, and upon which it is building with exciting new products and technological innovations.
