Cooper forms working groups

Homeland Security Chief Information Officer Steve Cooper has formed four working groups of fellow CIOs to analyze issues surrounding information sharing.

The groups are formed around border and transportation security; first responders; chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear weapons; and state and local information, Cooper said at Government Symposium on Information Sharing and Homeland Security in Philadelphia

The border and transportation group is furthest along in its work, he said.
