Summary:

"The Program Manager, Information Sharing Environment (PM-ISE) is sponsoring an Information Sharing Environment (ISE)-Suspicious Activity Reporting (SAR) Evaluation Environment (EE) in furtherance of nationwide sharing of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) determined to or deemed to have a potential terrorism nexus1. The ISE-SAR EE project extends current SAR activities in the ISE to support examination of a variety of operational ISE-SAR-related processes, such as law enforcement information gathering, processing, coordination, outreach/liaison, vetting and analysis, reporting, associated training, and facilitation. The ISE-SAR EE will also explore the benefits of training front line and supervisory law enforcement personnel regarding recognized behaviors and incidents associated with terrorism-related criminal activity. Finally, the project will focus on enhancing interconnectivity of systems to better enable sharing of ISE-SAR data. Benefits from this ISE-SAR EE effort will include inputs for the development and publication of a guide or template for Federal, and State, local and tribal (SLT) entities to use in establishing policies, common business processes, architectures, and technical capabilities for gathering, documenting, processing, analyzing, and sharing terrorism-related suspicious activity information. Results will also be used to provide updates to the ISE-SAR Functional Standard. Standardizing a SAR approach across the various levels of government will help meet the following objectives: A. Develop and document standing and threat-based priority information needs that will, once combined with existing national and regional needs, fully inform the gathering of terrorism-related SARs for a State or local area. These priority information needs will be developed through a coordinated information sharing effort involving Federal, State and local authorities at both a national and SLT level; B. Gather, document, process, vet, make available, share, and use terrorism-related SARs by individual local law enforcement entities with the Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTFs) and Fusion Centers in a manner that ensures the appropriate operational and analytical responses while protecting the information privacy and legal rights of Americans; C. Federal field elements, regional and/or major urban area law enforcement entities post terrorism-related SARs in ISE Shared Spaces. These objectives cover the life cycle of ISE-SAR activity and reflect the need for an evaluation environment to help develop and test various business processes and procedures; to help identify and address a range of policy issues; and to assess selected architectural and technical concepts supporting the business processes, procedures, and policies associated with a nationwide SAR capability."--Overview
