Where: R&E Auditorium
(U) Advance registration is required; see below for instructions.
(U//FOUO) The homeland security component of the Global War on Terrorism, like all aspects of
GWOT, requires broad cooperation among all of our allies, specifically our most trusted partners
-- the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. On a daily basis, we collaboratively work with
these partners to uncover threats to our homelands and to secure our respective borders. Five
years since 9/11, however, we still do not fully understand how our partners define homeland
security, and how all of our various authorities and structures permit -- or inhibit-- different
actions.
(U//FOUO) Please join us in the R&E Auditorium, or via VTC from field locations, on 8 January
from 1:00-3:00, to listen to and participate in discussions on homeland security within and
amongst the US and our partners. NSA's Homeland Security Support Office/Office of the
NSA/CSS Representative to the Department of Homeland Security (NCR DHS) will chair a panel
consisting of representatives from the UK's GCHQ, Australia's DSD, Canada's CSE, and New
Zealand's, GCSB to present and discuss the many issues dealing with homeland security.
(U) The Agenda
(U//FOUO) The session will begin with a panel of representatives from each of our five nations
discussing how homeland security is addressed in each country. Each nation's presentation will:
define homeland security;
describe who in their government is responsible for homeland security;
outline the intelligence-sharing policies within their government and to their counterpart
agencies in other countries; and
describe the laws and policies that govern how SIGINT can be shared with law
enforcement entities.
(U//FOUO) The panel will be followed by an open question-and-answer session. This session will
provide a rare opportunity for analysts and agency leaders alike to discover ways to understand
each other's authorities, limitations and restrictions, and to open new avenues for information
sharing.
(U) Registration
(U//FOUO) This session will be open to all TS//SI cleared personnel and discussions and
presentations may be held, up to the TS//SI releasable level. To register for this session, please
