• Sommario/riassunto: Explores both counter-terrorism and enabling policy dimensions of emerging information technologies in national security After the September 11th attacks, ""connecting the dots"" has become the watchword for using information and intelligence to protect the United States from future terrorist attacks. Advanced and emerging information technologies offer key assets in confronting a secretive, asymmetric, and networked enemy. Yet, in a free and open society, policies must ensure that these powerful technologies are used responsibly, and that privacy and civil liberties remain protected.
