Two top Department of Homeland Security and Customs and Border Protection officials told a congressional panel that they’re working on ways to gauge the effectiveness of border security technology.
Integrated towers, sensors, video surveillance systems, aircraft and other technology all play a part in border security operations, CBP Acting Deputy Commissioner Ronald Vitiello said at a March 15 House hearing.
The Border and Maritime Security Subcommittee of the House Homeland Security Committee convened the hearing to get a sense of what could be achieved with the 10-year, $33 billion funding request from the administration to cover the proposed border wall and associated technology.
