About the HDIAC

The Homeland Defense and Security Information Analysis Center (HDIAC) is a Department of Defense (DoD) Information Analysis Center (IAC) sponsored by the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC).

HDIAC, one of three IACs sponsored by DTIC, performs the Basic Center of Operations (BCO) functions necessary to fulfill the mission and objectives applicable to the DoD Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) and Acquisition communities’ needs. These activities focus on the collection, analysis, synthesizing/processing and dissemination of Scientific and Technical Information (STI).

The BCO functions, specifically the collection and dissemination of STI, produce several valuable resources (e.g., reports, tool databases, data collections, etc.) in the HDIAC’s core technology areas (Alternative energy, Biometrics, CBRN Defense, Cultural Studies, Critical Infrastructure Protection, Homeland Defense & Security, Medical, and Weapons of Mass Destruction). In addition to providing access to these resources, the HDIAC also performs up to four hours of support (free of charge) in response to Technical Inquiries. The HDIAC can also provide services as Core Analysis Tasks (CATs) procured and funded through the issuance of Delivery Orders (DO).

HDIAC is chartered to leverage the best practices and expertise from government, industry, and academia in order to promote technology domain awareness and solve the most critically challenging scientific and technical problems. This is achieved by conducting gap analyses and proactively performing research efforts to fill the voids in the knowledge bases that are vital to our nation.

HDIAC customers include researchers, engineers, scientists, and program managers from the DoD, government, industry and academia.

DTIC’s IAC Program

The IACs are research and analysis organizations chartered by the DoD and operated by the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) IAC program, to help researchers, engineers, scientists and program managers utilize existing Scientific and Technical Information (STI). They establish and maintain comprehensive knowledge bases that include historical, technical, scientific, and other data and information collected worldwide.
