This research center says it focuses on legal issues associated with antiterrorism and counterterrorism, with emphasis on cyberspace and “information assurance technologies.” The center examines these legal issues with an eye toward achieving “a proper balance between global security and civil justice” in such laws as the USA Patriot Act of 2001, the Homeland Security Act of 2002 and the Freedom of Information Act. Addicott, the director, is a former U.S. Army lawyer.
