Applying Wireless Security Practices to Justice Information Sharing was developed through a collaborative effort of the Global Justice Information Sharing Initiative (Global) Security Working Group, Office of Justice Programs (OJP), U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).

Global aids its member organizations and the people they serve through a series of important initiatives.  These include the facilitation of Global working groups.  The Global Security Working Group (GSWG) is one of four Global working groups covering critical topics such as intelligence, privacy, and standards.

The GSWG focuses on the trusted and secure information exchange among justice agencies. Security of the entire information exchange enterprise is only as strong as the weakest link. The GSWG pursues security measures necessary for today's enhanced information sharing abilities.

This document is the product of Global and its membership of justice practitioners and industry professionals.  Sincere appreciation and gratitude are extended to the GSWG of 2006 and its members for volunteering their time to contribute to this project.
