UNCLASSIFIED Challenges, Lessons Learned, and Opportunities from a Decade of Terrorism-Related Information Sharing Kshemendra Paul Program Manager, Information Sharing Environment UNCLASSIFIED
AGENDA My Journey Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF) Nationwide Challenges ISE Scope & Governance Nationwide Successes Big Idea: Terrorism-related Information Interoperability Big Idea: Information Sharing & Safeguarding Core Interoperability Framework Current State of ISE Project Interoperability & Playbook Standards Coordinating Council How to Leverage our Work for Your Benefit 2

BLUF Challenges Network-centricity, or going horizontal in a vertical world Culture & boundaries as impediments to collaboration & info sharing Immature frameworks, architectures, standards Lessons Learned Multi-disciplinary, open, iterative approach w/ terrorism-related focus drove progress Bottom-up, persistent pressure can transform government Pooling authorities and coordinating based on common requirements Opportunities Distributed & decentralized yet coordinated government operations ISE is a successful model for networked, virtualized, open government Dual (Multi) use capabilities; mission agnostic frameworks 4
NATIONWIDE CHALLENGES Evolving & Converging Threats & Risks Collaboration Imperative Strengthening Safeguarding Enterprise Data Management National Approaches to Interoperability Common Operating Models Consistent, Transparent & Federated Policies Interoperable Capabilities & Shared Services 300+ million People 78Fusion Centers 28 HIDTAs FBI 18,000 LE Agencies NCIJTF CJIS FIGs JTTFs JRIGs TSC 750,000+ Officers DoD 6 RISS Centers Nlets Air Domain 250,000 911 Operators 1.2 million Firefighters DHS I&A ICE CBP TSA DNDO NPPD State 2.2 million Security Officers Maritime Domain DOJ ATF DEA USMS OJP 18CI/KR Sectors NCTC JCAT * Numbers are estimates Protection of Privacy, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties 5

NATIONWIDE SUCCESSES Frameworks and Standards for Responsible Information Sharing Institutionalized ISE Enterprise Architecture Framework via Project Interoperability International standards alignment and ICT Industry involvement via the Standards Coordinating Council Recognized leadership with assured information interoperability Simplified sign-on, no wrong door approach touching over 500K registered FSLTTPS end users Basis for government-wide domain awareness initiatives including but not limited to Maritime Terrorism-Related Collaboration in Domestic Nexus of National Security & Public Safety Mature National Network of Fusion Centers the domestic information and intelligence sharing platform Alignment between and among field-based intelligence and information sharing entities Suspicious activity reporting; deconfliction; request for information; alerts, warnings, notifications Scaling to public safety federated ICAM with FirstNet and Next Gen 911 Policy, Governance, Performance, & Planning Reasonable implementation and ongoing evolution of capabilities of 2007 NSIS and 2012 NSISS Privacy polices in-place, implemented, audited, and improved across ISE stakeholders Support to USG D/As to mature capabilities and address GAO, IG, and other findings Integration of non-federal stakeholders into ISE processes and procedures Stakeholder Engagement, Advocacy, Workforce, & Culture Change Premier advocate for responsible information including dissemination of knowledge and best practices Processes for identifying requirements and gaps, and working with partners Training materials targeting and delivered to policy, mission management, and frontline personnel Supporting stakeholders, individually and as organizations, to embrace responsible information sharing 8

STATE SUMMIT 11
CURRENT STATEOF ISE 15 States engaged in ISE implementation State Summit Federal agencies have adopted some ISE components Mission focused ISE development (NJ Opioid ISE) New assertion based architecture (ICIF under development) Project Interoperability 2.0 being constructed NGA Follow-up Ten Priorities for Action 12
PROJECT INTEROPERABILITY An integrated set of mission- agnostic documentation and technical resources that: Facilitate operational integration of the ICIF Advocate standards & technologies most likely to achieve compatibility, performance, and scalability desired in an ISE Bootstrap ISE owners in building, growing, and optimizing their ISEs Models Standards ICIF Templates Training Reference Architectures Guidance 13
PROJECT INTEROPERABILITY COMPONENTS USERS SAVE TIME AND MONEY in aligning their architectures and establishing ISEs; barriers to entry fall Project Interoperability 2.0 ISE Core Interoperability Framework (ICIF) ISE Integration Library REDUCES IMPLEMENTATION RISK by making available interoperability examples, a common vocabulary, etc. Outreach and Engagement ISE Supporting Standards Technical Assistance SCALING TRUST by moving to federated, standard, and automated enforcement of policy assertions at both the technical and policy levels in an ever- changing ecosystem 14
