What Is The AHC's Daily Disaster Dashboard & the SISE (Sensitive Information Sharing Environment)

ABOUT THE SISE

The SISE (Sensitive Information Sharing Environment) is operated by the All Hazards Consortium and its partners from government and industry for the purpose of sharing sensitive operational information before, during and after storms, disasters and disruptions.

The SISE is:

Private sector operated
A trusted mechanism to share sensitive and non-sensitive operational information during disasters
Jointly developed by private sector and state/local government members and advisors of the All Hazards Consortium, a ten year old 501c3
A “trusted” cloud based system to vetted people, segment data, and share information between qualified, screened people
A comprehensive framework that addresses legal, policy, process and technology requirements of private sector to share information w/states
Provides a single process and agreement to share information between public and private sectors
Designed with same trusted principles being used by the US Department of Defense and the Defense Industrial Base companies

ABOUT THE DAILY DISASTER DASHBOARD

This dashboard is a technology component of the SISE and is operated by the All Hazards Consortium (501c3) on behalf of the private sector members of the Mutli-State Fleet Response Working Group (www.fleeetresponse.org).

Technology Strategy: The Fleet Response Working Group plans to develop food, fuel wg’s and use this technology to build regional/local decision dashboards for private sector to share information with each other and state/local government quickly

This is part of the SISE (Sensitive Information Sharing Environment) Working Group’s efforts to create a legal, policy, process and technical platform to share sensitive operational information between sectors/companies and states at regional or local level.

Technology Overview:

Officially referred to geospatial collaboration technology
Developed by NASA / NOAA as visual decision support tool

Operational

Gets industry and government on the same page at same time
Provides local, regional or national common operating picture
Vettes and manages identities of users via the SISE WG’s legal, policy and procedural processes
Centralizes operational information is single place
Operationalized during JONAS in February 2016

Legal

The platform provides government & industry users protection from FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) requests
AHC is 501c3, exempt from FOIA
People only “view” the data and information provided, not take possession of it
Offered only to vetted SISE WG users under the current federated AHC Confidentiality Agreement approved Dec 2015 by public and private sector WG members

User Experience

Vetted users get email alert, click a link, and view information in browser window. Can also call into 10 minute conference call for details (if needed) or listen to recording of the conference call later
No username or login required.. no portal
Reduces need for multiple emails and conference calls
Allows continuous data updates while decision makers access it periodically throughout an incident over multiple days, weeks, months

Technical

Protects outside access to private sector’s databases
Browser based on all devices (phone, tablet, laptop, desktop, etc…)
Merges data from any source, any format
Allows layering of real-time or non real-time data
Merges data from:
- State emergency declarations (PDF formats)
- Electric sector fleet movement data (Spreadsheet formats from RMAGs)
- NOAA weather data (continuous data feed from NOAA)
- Real-time open/closed data for essential service commercial providers for fuel, food, pharmacies and hotels (continuous data feed from HUGHES Networks Systems)
- AHC Operational Help Desk updates from states, feds or private sector that is relevant to transportation, regulatory, resource availability, state guidance and other “on the fly” information (live updates from Social Media, texts, phone calls, links, emails, other websites, and network of peers)

General

The AHC’s Fleet Response Working Group is using it for our Electric sector’s USE CASE #1 – Expediting Power Restoration & Fleet Movement
