The Homeland Security Department is planning a technical makeover to get its Homeland Security Information Network into the data-sharing game. HSIN took shape about four years ago but has drawn criticism for its disconnected relationship with similar systems. Department officials plan to pursue the HSIN technology shake-up in tandem with policy and organizational changes designed to harmonize their network’s technological development with its users’ needs. The revamp is intended to mesh DHS’ homegrown network with other law enforcement and intelligence information-sharing systems, parts of which HSIN duplicates.
