The Maritime Information Sharing Taskforce (MIST) is a pilot process for incorporating local practitioner-level input into the sharing of maritime threat information. The push to share threat information is a direct outgrowth of the terrorist attacks on the United States on September 11,2001. Driven by presidential directives and congressional laws, the United States government established a series of policies and programs to integrate private sector input into national maritime security efforts. In support of this effort, the MIST team created a pilot project to explore a federated, network-centric process for the sharing of threat information at the local port level. The project included a web site for community building, two brief polls, and a two day workshop. The MIST process resulted in data on providing incentives, measuring performance, leveraging local control, improving collaboration, improving the quality and access to information, and streamlining government processes and policies. In addition, the pilot project surfaced necessary process improvements for MIST in the areas of community building, coordination, and overall structure.
