Security System Guidelines - Access Management and Credentialing

The objective of this project is to create and manage a transit complement to the Transportation Security Administration's Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) Program. This project will develop security guidelines for transit access management and will facilitate a working group/forum with the transit industry to ensure transit needs are met with regard to the Transportation Security Administration's credentialing program. The project will also help create a cohesive network of transit professionals familiar with the TWIC Program who could participate in advisory groups during subsequent stages of TWIC pilots and implementations.
