SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Technical Resource for Incident Prevention (TRIPwire)
TRIPwire (Technical Resource for Incident Prevention) is the
Department of Homeland Security's online, collaborative information-
sharing network for bomb technicians, first responders, military
personnel, government officials, intelligence analysts, and select
private sector security professionals to increase awareness of evolving
improvised explosive device (IED) tactics, techniques, and procedures,
as well as incident lessons learned and counter-IED preparedness
information. Developed and maintained by OBP, the TRIPwire system
combines expert analysis and reports with relevant documents, images,
and videos gathered from publicly available sources to help users
anticipate, identify, and prevent IED incidents.
Users from federal, state, local, and tribal government entities,
as well as business and/or other for-profit industries, can register
for TRIPwire access. The TRIPwire portal contains sensitive information
related to the criminal use of explosives by threat actors, including
violent, malicious organizations, which requires a limited, controlled
means of dissemination--such as designations of ``For Official Use
Only,'' ``Law Enforcement Sensitive,'' or ``Controlled Unclassified
Information.'' Therefore, CISA must collect user information in order
to verify an individual's eligibility to access the TRIPwire system.
In addition to new user registrations, CISA will also seek feedback
from TRIPwire users via a questionnaire and will request that TRIPwire
users revalidate their access status on an annual basis. All
information collected/provided pursuant to this ICR will be done so on
a strictly voluntary basis.
This collection of information is consistent with CISA's statutory
authorities to provide assistance to federal and non-federal entities
to enhance the security and resiliency of critical infrastructure,
including the authority provided by 6 U.S.C. 652(c)(5), (11) and 6
U.S.C. 652(e)(1)(C).
The Office of Management and Budget is particularly interested in
comments which:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic
submissions of responses.
This is a reinstatement of an existing collection (1670-0028) with
changes to the information collection.
