'''The Department of Homeland Security''' is a part of the Executive Branch of the United States government. Its purpose is to evaluate and neutralize threats to national security.
 
 
In real life, the Department of Homeland Security was created to further counterterrorism goals, as [[CTU]] does on ''[[24]]''. Nevertheless, it does appear in both the [[David Palmer]] and [[Charles Logan]] administrations.
 
 
==Day 2==
 
[[Ralph Burton]], a private investigator hired by [[Kate Warner]], reported to Homeland Security that [[Reza Naiyeer]] was possibly involved with [[Syed Ali]] and the [[Second Wave]] terrorist cell. They alerted [[CTU]] and [[Tony Almeida]] investigated his background.
 
 
==Day 3==
 
[[David Palmer]] was advised on how to handle the [[Cordilla Virus]] by [[Joseph O'Laughlin]], who was the head of the Department.
 
 
==Day 4==
 
Homeland Security monitored phone calls after the attack on [[James Heller]] and picked up a call between [[Dina Araz]] and her son.
 
 
==Day 5==
 
The department plays a pivotal role in [[Day 5]], when [[Karen Hayes]] and [[Miles Papazian]] from the DHS take over [[CTU Los Angeles]] following a Sentox VX nerve gas attack that killed nearly 40% of the staff. Their staffers such as [[Susan Cittle]] and [[Jim Hill]] take over surviving CTU employees, such as [[Vivian Crenzler]] and [[Phyllis Jecille]]. Many of the people at CTU for the rest of the day were from the DHS, so that Hayes and Papazian would have more control.
