Groove Networks Inc., a provider of secure virtual office software that lets teams of people work over the network as if they were in the same location, today announced that its software is a core component of an information-sharing network that Department of Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge announced Tuesday, calling it “a key part of our national homeland security strategy.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
A public demonstration of the Homeland Security Information Network (HSIN) will occur Thursday at the AFCEA Homeland Security Conference at the Ronald Reagan International Trade Center in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n
Marking the one-year anniversary of the Department of Homeland Security, Ridge said HSIN will expand upon the Joint Regional Information Exchange System (JRIES) that includes Groove Workspace as a core component for real-time, secure, intra- and inter-agency collaboration. Last year, Groove Workspace obtained the first Department of Defense (DoD) certification for interoperability with version 2.0 of the Defense Collaboration Tool Suite (DCTS).<\/p>\n
Ridge said HSIN will be expanded to “all 50 states, five territories, tribal governments, and 50 major urban areas” and eventually to the private sector so it can coordinate preparedness efforts with government officials.<\/p>\n
The software provides secure communication across insecure networks, is self-synchronizing, supports on- and off-line use, and employs a “web of trust” user authentication model.<\/p>\n
