1. Homeland Security Intelligence Workshop

This unique workshop will help you explore the emerging intelligence requirements, organizational and operations to conduct Homeland Security intelligence activities, surveying the legal and information requirements demanded by Congress, and the operational implementation across intelligence and law enforcement. Focusing on practical implementation, the Homeland Security Intelligence Workshop provides a strong introduction to the methodologies of collection, processing and analysis. It also shows you how these requirements can be practically achieved at the federal, state and local levels in terms of operations (e.g. information sharing mechanisms and intelligence fusion centers) and technology implementations. You will examine the processes of information sharing, intelligence and warning, cross-organization collaboration, and intelligence dissemination. The operational (people and processes), systems (networked infrastructure) and technical (standards, and technologies) perspectives of the Homeland Security intelligence architecture are described. You will also discuss future directions in the emerging threat and in the development of technologies to support Homeland Security.

 

What You Will Learn:

 

* How are U.S. Strategies in Homeland Security influencing current and future plans and initiatives in federal, state and local intelligence operations and systems?
* What does the Homeland Security intelligence architecture look like? What information sharing processes and systems are required, and how are they being implemented and integrated? What information tools will analysts, crisis managers,     and first responders require?
* What resources are being allocated for intelligence needs? Who conducts the operations, performs the R&D, and who will implement and operate them?
* How are the current intelligence operations performed? What are the practical sources, collection and analysis methods and how are they implemented?
* What new technologies are being developed to achieve the necessary capabilities for intelligence collection, sharing, processing, analysis and dissemination?
* PLUS, A review of over 20 current Homeland Security related intelligence activities across the Intelligence Community, ODNI, DoD, DoJ, State, the ISACs, DARPA, IARPA and others.

The Fusion Centers and Information Sharing Strategies Conference will bring together government officials, emergency responders, security personnel and the private sector to address the issues of fusion centers information sharing.
