S&T is committed to providing the best scientific, R&D, and test and evaluation support to find innovative and cutting-edge technology for our DHS partners. One such resource is DHS’s work with In-Q-Tel (IQT). IQT is the independent, non-profit strategic investor for the CIA and the broader U.S. Intelligence Community – including the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
Washington, D.C. - The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is announcing its first ever strategic framework on the implementation and responsible integration of Artificial Intelligence in the domestic security apparatus.
