- HSIN Exchange is the platform
for the secure communications
between fusion centers.
The main place
that fusion centers
are going to exchange
and securely exchange
requests for information
back and forth
in our efforts to
protect the nation.
- HSIN Exchange provides
the next level of maturity
in terms of the metrics
it will generate
the tools it will
provide managers
across the public safety,
counter terrorism enterprise.
These are key capabilities
that are in place today
making a difference.
- With a push of a button
you are able to get your
message out to your colleagues
from all entities from
the fusion center world
and ask the questions
that need to be asked.
And through business processes
that are built
into HSIN Exchange
that question reaches the people
that are able to
answer those questions.
- We have certain investigators
that are far more efficient
with license plate reader data.
Others are better with
criminal data bases
so we're able to
reach out to them.
Pull all that
information together
and get it out far
faster than we could have
if we were doing it by email.
We like to think that it helps
save lives down the road.
- In addition to
the fusion centers
and terrorist
screening centers
other partners such
as the high intensity
drug trafficking areas.
The regional information
sharing projects
and the El Paso
Intelligence Center
are all coming on board.
- No longer do we have
to make one-off calls
emails to people, and
wait for a response.
Now we have an ability
to track those requests
and the ability to see where
they are in the process.
And we have the
ability as managers
to see when they're closed out.
And that's an incredible process
that's never existed
in government.
