Investment Detail
The systems in this investment are critical to DS securing post, post personnel and systems for the Department. Our biometrics efforts including THOR are successful in screening over 200 Locally Employed Staff weekly for a total of 55,000 total since the project started in 2013. The system's operation has resulted in 218+ biometric hits against persons with derogatory information including Known or Suspected Terrorists preventing bad actors from working at our posts. In addition, our Investigative management System (IMS) has been instrumental in aggregating all the artifacts and evidence needed to prosecute and close cases for Passport and Visa fraud worldwide.
