Information Maine Analysis and An Center NATIONAL SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY REPORTING (SAR) PROCESS: MIAC MIAC participates in the Nationwide Suspicious Activity Reporting Initiative, a joint collaborative effort by the U.S. DHS, the FBI, and state, local, tribal, and territorial law enforcement partners. This initiative establishes a national capacity for gathering, documenting, processing, analyzing, and sharing — SAR information through the "See Something Say Something" campaign to encourage the reporting of suspicious activity by the public and private sectors. The program uses a standardized process — including stakeholder outreach, privacy protections, training, and technology assistance to identify and report suspicious activity in jurisdictions across the country to a single focal point for sharing SAR information.5 The SAR process is critical to sharing information about suspicious activity with a potential nexus to terrorism, which can help prevent terrorist attacks and other related criminal activity from occurring. The National Suspicious Activity Report Initiative (NSI) defines suspicious activity as "observed behavior reasonably indicative of pre-operational planning associated with terrorism or other criminal activity." This definition was developed after critical input from several privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties advocacy groups, including the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).
