  • “This report describes DHS programs that meet the definition of data mining required by the Congress in Section 804 of the 9/11 Commission Act, entitled the Federal Agency Data Mining Reporting Act, and summarizes the Privacy Office’s public workshop, Implementing Privacy Protections in Government Data Mining, which was held on July 24-25, 2008. The Report also presents principles for implementing privacy protections in research projects conducted by the DHS Science and Technology Directorate (S&T), the Department’s primary research and development arm. The Principles, which were developed jointly by the Privacy Office and S&T, provide guidance for incorporating privacy protections into privacy-sensitive S&T research and development projects in a manner that supports the DHS mission.”
