1. NMIOTC Conference 26-28 June 2012 Mr. Michael “Monty” Montgomery
United States Central Command Joint Security Office Force Protection Division Technology Branch

2. CENTCOM Maritime Operations
Combined Maritime Forces (CMF)
CTF 150 Counter-Terrorism (CT); Maritime Security
CTF 151 Counter-Piracy (CP)
CTF 152 Gulf Maritime Security
The 26 nations that comprise CMF are not bound by either a political or military mandate
CMF is a flexible organization
Vice Adm. John Miller relieved Vice Adm. Mark Fox as commander, U.S. Naval Forces Central Command/Fifth Fleet/Combined Maritime Forces
May
CMF consists of 26 nations – all volunteer and provide whatever service they can
Flexible – because members can come and go as they desire and provide help in any way they desire

3. CTF -151 Counter-Piracy
CJTF 151 operates out of the Horn of Africa to combat piracy and as of 2009 operates under USCENTCOM…not USAFRICOM
CTF-151′s mission is to disrupt piracy and armed robbery at sea and to engage with regional and other partners to build capacity and improve relevant capabilities in order to protect global maritime commerce and secure freedom of navigation.
18 Jun 12 Korea took Command (Rotational)
This building capacity and capabilities mission statement is where CENTCOM believes C3PO can help improve the sharing of MIO data and specifically the biometric collect, match and response can aid in the positive Identification and prosecution or tracking of pirates.

4. Partner Nation Benefits
Advance the rule of law through; consistent, reliable and defendable law enforcement techniques, support to criminal intelligence and civil unrest
Support to Ministry of Defense or Ministry of Interior with external or internal security investigations
Improved Regional Security through information sharing on land and at sea
Improve border and port of entry control, capture wanted persons, identification of drug smugglers and illegal weapons trafficking 4

5. CENTCOM ID Ops Requirements
Near-real time response to the warfighter on the objective
To include latent queries
Warfighter accessible training
Virtual-Based Training (VBT)
Institutionalized
Pre-deployment and theater
Institutionalize critical Forensic programs and capabilities to ensure continued support to the warfighter
Scalable; modular, expeditionary (e.g. EFL, ACME, EAC)
Responsive, agile, multi-tiered
Near-real time response to the warfighter on the objective
To include latent queries
Warfighter accessible training
Virtual-Based Training (VBT)
Institutionalized –service specific skill identifiers and the ability to grow the expertise we now rely on contractors to provide at astronomical costs.
Pre-deployment and theater – We must get this biometric training into the CTCs, the school houses, Maritime Training exercises and even in theater to ensure our Sailors and Marines are prepared, identified and placed in the right positions to allow for success.
Institutionalize critical forensic programs and capabilities to ensure continued support to the warfighter
Scalable; modular, expeditionary (e.g. EFL)
Responsive, agile, multi-tiered (e.g. WIT, EFL, TEDAC) – Critical forensic skillsets are currently funded with Overseas Contingency Operations dollars and unless these capabilities are institutionalized quickly we stand to lose one of the most valuable assets we have in the fight against Piracy and terrorism.

6. Last Tactical Mile (LTM)
The ability to send and receive biometric data and contextual information to warfighters on/off the FOB/COP
On board enrollment and matching
Wirelessly transmit and receive at the handheld
Local trusted database
Match to latent prints
Most current AFG WL
Transmit watch list updates to handheld device
Transmit to DoD ABIS
Receive match and respond

7. LTM Success
The LTM Hand-held reduced the time to enroll subjects from 20 minutes (HIIDE) to ~ 5 Minutes (SEEK II)
The hand-held provided the capability to conduct on-the-spot checks against current watch lists wirelessly, removing burden of transportation back to FOB or COP to submit collections
When NIPR network was available, warfighter received a majority of responses within 2-5 minutes (ATEC Report)
Reported Times:
31.2% within 2 mins
42.5% within 2-5 mins
26.3% > 5 mins
Bottom line on why you need a CFS forward is:
Warfighter time requirements for response
Comms from OCONUS to CONUS go down more frequently than Comms in AFG
LTM total enrollments as of 17 May 2012, 4,563 enrollment
From the 4,563 LTM enrollments x DoD WL Hits
165 x AFG WL Hits
89 x NCTC KST WL Hits
1 x DoD Tier 1 WL Hit
16 x AFG WL 2 Hits
10 x latent Hits to the CFS
5 of the 10 x latent Hits not on any WL
2 of the 5 x latent Hits were detain on site,
3 of the enrollments the unit did not transmit,
enrollment, it was downloaded during new build being place on the SEEK
The other 1 enrollment was from a unit with out a mobile node to transmit the enrollment
Detained or identified over 220 total WL hits~5K enrollments…as of Jun 2012
5x latent not on any current WL x KST at NCTC
1x DoD Tier 1 WL, 16 AFG WL level 2’s x AFG BEWL

8. Maritime Last Tactical Mile
NAVCENT Requirements
Maritime Last Tactical Mile
Near-real time biometric and forensic collect, match and response capabilities from a forward server located at NAVCENT to support Counter-Piracy, Maritime Interdiction and other base operations
Provide a wireless match response from a biometric enabled watch list and unresolved latent fingerprint database in less than 5 minutes to end user

9. C3PO OV-1 Operational Overview

10. Maritime Last Tactical Mile / C3PO
JIEDDO funding
Triple redundancy collect, match, response architecture
Handheld
DoD Watchlist Tier 1 and 2
Local watchlist
Biometric Forward matching server
CMF/CTF/NAVCENT Watchlist
Latent prints
DoD Automated Biometric Identification System (ABIS)
Intel analysis support
Triple redundancy collect, match, response architecture
Uses current robust Comm/CENTRIX architecture back to the Combined Intelligence Fusion Center (CIFC) / CMF Watch / NAVCENT
Could use SOF portal architecture (BGAN Sat or with current on board unclassified internet access)
Currently discussing 3G/4G capabilities for future (concerns currently with this because of the need for LOS)
Combined Intelligence Fusion Center (CIFC) / CMF Watch
