[edit] Brett Rosenberg

Brett Rosenberg is a Boston, Massachusetts musician. As well as his solo power-pop work, he is also known as a member of rock-and-soul band The Rudds and has toured nationally as a sideman with pub-rocker Graham Parker.

Solo career

Brett Rosenberg began his music career in 1999, relocating from rural New York State to Boston at age 20. He began as a subway busker and caught the attention of singer-songwriter and fellow busker Mary Lou Lord, who introduced him to the Boston music scene. Rosenberg's profile rose and in 2000, he formed his first band, the Brett Rosenberg Problem. Rosenberg and his band performed with or toured with many notable acts, including John Doe, Damien Rice, Of Montreal, The Von Bondies, Nikki Sudden, and Josh Ritter. Between 2001 and 2005, the group released four albums on various indie record labels, touring nationally and garnering coverage in the Boston Globe, the Village Voice, and other publications. 2004 saw the release of Rosenberg's first album minus his band, Shocktwins, a diverse, sometimes dark set of home recordings. The Brett Rosenberg Problem placed third in the 2004 WBCN Rock & Roll Rumble. In 2004 and 2005, Rosenberg was nominated for Best Vocalist at the NEMO Boston Music Awards. In 2006, Rosenberg released a varied solo collection, Drop Dead Air, to mixed reviews and toured the eastern and southern US to promote the album.

Career as a Sideman

In 2000, Rosenberg began his career as a sideman, playing lead guitar for ex-Mighty Mighty Bosstones keyboardist Dave Aaronoff in his new band, The Details. Later that year, Brett Rosenberg joined Boston band Army of Jasons as a bass player and stayed on until the group disbanded in 2004.

From 2001 to present, Rosenberg has been lead guitarist for rock-and-soul outfit The Rudds. In 2004, Tony Goddess, late of 90's indie-pop mainstays Papas Fritas, joined the band on bass and produced their 2005 release, Get the Femuline Hang-On. The release was nominated for "Best Album" at the 2005 NEMO Boston Music Awards. In 2006, The Rudds placed second in the WBCN Rock-n-Roll Rumble. That same year, the group opened for The Flaming Lips and served as backing band for model/ex-playmate/celebrity Bebe Buell.

In 2004, Rosenberg played guitar in the Hot Stove All-Stars, a band fronted and founded by legendary sportswriter Peter Gammons for his annual Jimmy Fund benefit series.

In 2005, Rosenberg was asked to tour as a guitarist with Graham Parker's backing band, the Figgs. The final concert of that tour is documented on Parker's 2006 release, 103 Degrees in June.

[edit] Joint Regional Information Exchange System (JRIES)

The Joint Regional Information Exchange System (JRIES) began in December 2002 as an all-source intelligence / information sharing system, designed initially as a grassroots pilot system to connect the California Anti-Terrorism Information Center, the New York Police Department, and the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). These groups designed JRIES, which was first deployed in February 2003, to facilitate the exchange of suspicious activity reports, register events potentially related to terrorist activity, and foster real-time intelligence and law enforcement collaboration in a secure environment across federal, state, and local jurisdictions. JRIES used a commercial, off-the-shelf software collaboration tool application to enable multiple groups to share the information securely. A JRIES executive board, comprised of representatives from the participating groups, provided guidance and structure to help manage the system. JRIES proved useful during the northeast blackout in 2003 when information posted on the system allowed users across the country to quickly learn that the event was not related to terrorism. The system provided a very simple and efficient way for the law enforcement community to obtain situational awareness concurrently, without the need for hundreds of phone calls.

Although DIA originally operated and maintained JRIES, DIA transferred program management of the system to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in September 2003, due to funding constraints. DIA was concerned that managing JRIES to support domestic intelligence activities conflicted with its military intelligence role. As of February 2004, approximately 100 organizations–with more than 1,000 law enforcement and intelligence analysts from federal, state, and local government agencies–were using JRIES.

After acquiring JRIES, DHS recognized that the system’s utility could be expanded beyond its existing counter-terrorism intelligence and threat awareness mission because JRIES met DHS’ requirements for senior executive communications, crisis planning and management, and coordination and communications with first responder, emergency management, and military organizations. As such, in February 2004, DHS announced the expansion of JRIES as its primary communication, collaboration, situational awareness, and information-sharing system. The DHS Secretary renamed JRIES as the Homeland Security Information Network (HSIN) in order to reflect the system’s broader scope. By December 2004, DHS had deployed HSIN to all 50 states, 53 major urban areas, five U.S. territories, the District of Columbia, and several international partners. DHS extended HSIN access beyond the law enforcement community to include state homeland security advisors, governors’ offices, emergency managers, first responders, the National Guard, and an international component. DHS equipped each location with two laptops installed with the commercial, off-the-shelf software collaboration tool application.

In March 2005, because of the lack of scalability to accommodate a large increase in users, DHS decided to move HSIN away from the current software collaboration tool and to develop a series of web-based portals as replacements. Nonetheless, DHS continues to operate both the commercial software collaboration tool application and a portal to support the law enforcement community.

DHS has expanded the role of HSIN through a state and local initiative. The goals of this initiative are to identify and address requirements of state and local communities of interest, as well as to provide robust training to promote effective use of the network. As of January 2006, eight states had deployed HSIN throughout their respective departments and agencies. Declaring HSIN the primary system for operational information sharing and collaboration, the DHS Secretary asked that the department’s senior managers as well as headquarters and field personnel support the ongoing growth and utilization of HSIN.

Prior to DHS’ implementation and expansion of HSIN, reports by various nonprofit, industry, audit, and congressional organizations documented problems with homeland security information sharing and the need for a single, effective collaboration system.
