As a result of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, Congress passed a number of laws, such as the Marine Transportation Security Act and the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act, aimed at improving security in the United States. The implementation of these laws requires in-depth knowledge of the potential threats to U.S. citizens, infrastructure, and economic centers; the technology available to deter these threats; and the value placed on improved safety. IEc assists agencies such as the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection in the Department of Homeland Security in understanding the implications of their regulatory efforts on the U.S. economy. IEc applies its extensive experience conducting regulatory impact analyses, industry analyses, and risk assessments to understand the potential costs and benefits of security regulations.
