  • ISAC-Information Sharing and Analysis Center
  • Managed by the Fire Administration at a location
    in Maryland.
  • Will potentially manage HSIN for the sector.

8
Information Sharing ProgramSimple Premise
  • Information shared with the First Responder
    Community is also shared with state, regional and
    local governments
  • The Homeland Security Information Network (HSIN)
    will support the entire First Responder Community
  • Information shared with DHS can be shielded by
    the Protected Critical Infrastructure Information
    (PCII) program.

9
Information Sharing ProgramGuiding Principles
  • Voluntary participation by industry
  • Maximize use of existing operational centers
  • Minimize burden on government and industry
    participants
  • Establish two-way, trusted information sharing
    channels
  • Improve preparedness of the entire sector for
    major disasters or terrorist attacks
  • Provide a rapid means to collect and exchange
    critical information

10
Two-Way Information Sharing
  • IAIP/ICD communicates timely threat and incident
    information and coordinates the dissemination of
    DHS threat and warning products to the
    infrastructure owners and operators, primarily
    through the Information Sharing and Analysis
    Centers (ISACs) and/or Sector Coordinating
    Councils (SCCs)
  • IAIP/ICD regularly solicits technical expertise
    on infrastructure-related issues addressed in
    warning products via the ISACs and SCCs
  • Infrastructure owners and operators, primarily
    through the ISACs and/or SCCs, pro-actively send
    threat and incident information to IAIP/ICD
  • Industry threat/incident data is fused with law
    enforcement and intelligence community
    information to produce timely and actionable DHS
    threat and warning products

11
Homeland Security Information Network (HSIN)
  • A free service provided by DHS IAIP for the
    nations infrastructure owners and operators
  • A highly secure network backbone built over the
    Internet
  • A common set of information sharing
    functions/tools
  • Announced by Secretary Ridge, March 2004

12
HSIN Functionality
In deploying HSIN capabilities to the sector, DHS
seeks to provide the following high-level
features and benefits as a starting point
13
Critical Infrastructure Information (CII) Act of
2002
  • This Act created a Program to receive and protect
    voluntarily submitted CII which may contain
    proprietary and confidential information not
    otherwise available to the Federal Government and
    not customarily in the public domain.
  • Once validated as Protected CII, information will
    be protected from disclosure - encouraging
    submission of information by the private sector
  • PCII can be used by the Federal Government to
    analyze potential threats against the US, produce
    warnings, formulate plans, and coordinate efforts
    of government agencies

14
ConclusionsWhy Participate in the
IAIPInformation Sharing Program?
  • Better access to threat and incident information
  • More timely warning notification, including
    recommended protective measures
  • More useful information on infrastructure
    interdependencies
  • Information exchanges enhance situational
    awareness within your sector and company
