In building responsible information sharing, Identity Management means that we can validate our users and that they have the proper credentials, or attributes, to access the right information. It’s just like we follow a race car on the track full of competitors with its team name and number. Easy enough, right? Well not so fast, Mario Andretti!

I would like to congratulate my Senior Tribal Advisor Joe LaPorte for his recent re-election as Chair of the Indian Country Section of the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP). We greatly value our work with IACP in information sharing, and Joe’s efforts to improve information sharing and access for tribal nations is critical to our success in building an Information Sharing Environment.

On Monday February 20th, the revised submission for the NIEM-UML Profile was delivered to the Object Management Group (OMG). A Unified Modeling Language (UML) Profile for NIEM aims to provide a standard for modeling NIEM artifacts (such as Model Package Descriptions, or MPDs) using UML.
What does this mean to you? In the very near future, you will be able to create a NIEM exchange with better visual tools. We anticipate that the profile will enable greater adoption of NIEM by tool vendors and will make it easier for developers of NIEM-conformant exchanges.

Earlier this month, I attended the Domestic Security Alliance Council (DSAC) annual meeting at the FBI headquarters. DSAC is a strategic partnership between the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, and the private sector that enhances communication and promotes the timely and effective exchange of information. Its goal is to keep the nation's critical infrastructure (such as interstate commerce and industry proprietary information) secure and resilient.
