InfraGard
is an organization dedicated to the protection of the United States
and the American people. In order to maintain a level of trust within
the membership, all applicants undergo a background check performed
by the FBI (for this reason InfraGard membership is currently limited
to United States citizens). Applications are then screened according
to a defined criteria and then passed to the local chapter for final
acceptance (individual chapters may have more strict criteria).
Along with your InfraGard
membership comes great responsibility. We value active members who are
willing to devote their time, effort and talent to help build this organization
and achieve our goals of protecting the American people. You will be
a representative of the nation's largest volunteer organization dedicated
to critical infrastructure protection.
