techniques, and procedures, including design and emplacement considerations. TRIPwire wasestablished as an IED informationsharing resource under Homeland Security Presidential Directive 19 (HSPD–19), which calls for a unified national policy for the prevention and detection of, protection against, and response to terrorist use of explosives in the United States. Users from Federal, state, local, and tribal governmententities; as well as business and forprofit industries can register through the TRIPwire Secure Portal. The TRIPwire portal contains sensitive information related to terrorist use of explosives and therefore user information is needed to verify eligibility and access to the system. TRIPwire applicants must provide their full name, assignment, citizenship, job title, employer name, professional address and contact information, as well as an Employment Verification Contact and their contact information. The system does not store sensitive PII such as social security numbers. The collection of PII by TRIPwire to establish user accounts occurs in accordance with the DHS Privacy Impact Assessment PIA–015, ‘‘DHS Web Portals,’’ DHS/ALL–004— General Information Technology Access Account Records System (GITAARS) November 27, 2012, 77 FR 70792, and DHS/ALL–002—Department of Homeland Security Mailing and Other Lists System November 25, 2008, 73 FR 71659. Participation in TRIPwire is voluntary. However, those who choose to participate are required to complete the registration process to obtain access. This requirement is designed to measure users’ suitability to access the secure environment.

The information collected during the TRIPwire user registration process is reviewed electronically by the TRIPwire team to vet the user’s ‘‘need to know,’’ which determines their eligibility for and access to TRIPwire. Memberships are re-verified annually based on the information users provide upon registration or communication with the TRIPwire help desk analysts. The information collected is for internal TRIPwire and OBP use only. Analysis
