DHS/I&A/PIA-001 Public-Private Sector Analytic Exchange Program (AEP)

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) acts as an Executive Agent for the Public-Private Sector Analytic Exchange Program (“AEP” or “the Program”) on behalf of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). The purpose of the AEP is to provide intelligence community (IC) and federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial (FSLTT) intelligence analysts the opportunity to engage with volunteer private sector analysts to better understand select national security and homeland security issues. All participants are selected through a competitive application process. AEP participants work to create unclassified joint analytic deliverables of interest to both the private sector and the U.S. Government. I&A is publishing this privacy impact assessment (PIA) because I&A collects personally identifiable information from individuals applying to, and selected for, the AEP in order to verify their U.S. citizenship, facilitate entry into federal buildings, facilitate reimbursement of their travel expenses, and enable access to federally-maintained information technology platforms used to facilitate public-private collaboration.
