Homeland Security Gets in the Groove: Peer-to-Peer Software Helps Public Safety Officials Communicate Securely

Overview Imagine if the federal, state and local agencies tasked with protecting citizens could share information as easily as music pirates swap illegal recordings online. In the days surrounding New Year's 2004, they did. While revelers celebrated in Times Square or enjoyed the Tournament of Roses Parade, law enforcement, intelligence and homeland security agents across the country were using peer-to-peer software from Groove Networks Inc. to collaborate and assess threats. In secure, online rooms, agents sent instant messages and swapped files in a unique form of real-time intelligence gathering.
