GovExec.com reported on significant testimony before the DoD’s Technology and Privacy Advisory Committee concerning the data collection software for CAPPS II, administered by TSA’s Office of National Risk Assessment (ONRA – whose “mission is to develop and maintain risk assessment systems to detect known terrorists and other legislatively assigned programs” [Link]). Implemention of data authentication technology will apparently separate the process of screening passenger data, accomplished using commercial databases, from law enforcement’s use of traveler information. A link to or copy of this testimony would be appreciated.
