Hawaii State Fusion Center Four Critical Operational Capabilities
Receive: Ability to receive classified and unclassified information from federal partners
Analyze: Ability to assess local implications of that threat information through the use of a formal risk assessment process
Disseminate: Ability to further disseminate that threat information to other state, local, tribal, territorial, and private sector entities within their jurisdiction
Gather: Ability to gather locally-generated information, aggregate it, analyze it, and share it with federal partners as appropriate
Strengthening the ability of fusion centers to execute the Critical Operational Capabilities while ensuring privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties (P/CRCL) protections are critical to building an integrated Network of State, Local, and Federal partners capable of providing resources, expertise, and information, with the goal of maximizing the state’s ability to detect, prevent, investigate, and respond to criminal, terrorist, and cyber activity
