* Not Inclusive: Discussion underway with several other agencies

• Expansion paced to ability to manage and operate

• Incorporate “value added” federal, state and municipal partners

• Integrate, as appropriate, with other SBU networks

• Determine need for additional capabilities:– Biometrics (Facial Recognition, Fingerprint Matching, other)

– Knowledge Discovery/Entity Extraction

– Data search and mining of multi-media data (video, audio)

– Natural Language Search

• Transition to mature management structure

Way AheadWay Ahead

• JRIES is designed primarily as an analytical tool for federal, state and municipal partners – paramount to JITF-CT Force Protection Mission

• JRIES functionality and technical solutions are simple and inexpensive – extensible to a broader stakeholder community if so desired– Example: Regional information sharing between local DoD

and other Federal Agencies, Law Enforcement, Local Government, and Local Critical Infrastructure

• Multiple tools and solutions are available or proposed to address Homeland Security requirements

• Integration of complementary solutions should be the goal – not competition – No one solution/approach likely to satisfy all requirements
