are currently three trainings: Chief Executive Briefing, Analyst Training, and Line
Officer Training. In an attempt to reach all 800,000 law enforcement officers, the Line
Officer Training is available in several online platforms, including www.mipt.org and
www.leaps.tv.
• Privacy and Civil Liberties Protections - The NSI requires each site to consider privacy
throughout the SAR process by fully adopting the following NSI Privacy Protection
Framework prior to NSI participation. This framework includes a privacy policy that
is at least as comprehensive as the ISE Privacy Guidelines, compliance with the most
current ISE-SAR Functional Standard, and completion of the privacy trainings.
• Enabling Technology - To support the operational mission, NSI Federated Search
facilitates information sharing using the National Information Exchange Model (NIEM),
allowing searches across a federated environment that uses a standardized data
format. The FBI’s eGuardian system has been fully integrated into the NSI Federated
Search.
It is critical that SAR information be submitted to the NSI Federated Search, including
e-Guardian so it can be shared with the nation’s JTTFs.
• Operational Process - The most important component of the program is supporting
the operational mission. The job of homeland security, safety, or justice cannot be
relegated to a fragmented approach, making a standards-based method for the
gathering, processing, reporting, analyzing, and sharing of suspicious activity (also
referred to as the SAR process) necessary. It is critical that there be integration
of state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies’ SAR processes into this
nationwide effort.
