Developing and Deploying Antiterrorism Technology (CTTSO/TSWG)

Volpe's Infrastructure Protection and Operations Division supports the Combating Terrorism Technology Support Office/Technical Support Working Group (CTTSO/TSWG), an interagency organization whose mission is to provide rapid research, development, and deployment of new technology for combating terrorism. Mr. John Wojtowicz of the Division, a core TSWG team member, participates in the CTTSO's program to develop antiterrorism technology for physical security with several international partners. This program determines which member governments have mutual requirements and identifies programs in which governments can share in technology development and funding. Over the last several months, Mr. Wojtowicz and representatives from U.S antiterrorism force protection groups have met with government officials from the United Kingdom and Canada. Similar meetings in Singapore and Australia are expected in spring 2004.
