Homeland Security Data Fusion Centers
November 5, 2006
The Homeland Security Department hopes to improve information sharing with state and local government fusion centers by giving those centers intelligence officers and an advanced communications network for classified information, a senior official said Friday.
Department Chief Intelligence Officer Charles Allen said he plans to have intelligence officers embedded at 18 fusion centers by the end of fiscal 2007 and at all other centers by the end of fiscal 2008. Fusion centers are central locations where local, state and federal officials work to receive, integrate and analyze intelligence.
