The Arctic Security part of the center provides leading expertise on Arctic issues involving U.S. national security, national defense, military, homeland defense, and homeland security. Many members of CASR have broad expertise and experience with the public-sector authorities that have responsibilities in such areas, nationally with the Department of Defense and State Department as well as NORAD and NATO at the international level.

The Arctic Resilience component of CASR provides prominent expertise on Arctic issues involving climate change and adaptation, disaster response and recovery, and climate security that also includes numerous security subtopics involving human security, food security, energy security, and corporate continuity in Alaska's Arctic Indigenous communities.
