Basically, national security is the president's responsability. He has a National Security Adviser appointed by him on his White House staff. He also is Commander-in-chief of all the US armed forces, and all the security agencies like the FBI, CIA, NSA and others ultimately report to him. He can through their directors appointed and fired by him, influence the way in which they operate and prioritize.
