James Giermanski Says Bungled Container Security Initiatives Call the S&T Directorate Into Question

Compelling article originally published on CSOonline.com. Giermanski has written for MarEx in the past on the issue of the Container Security Initiative.

According to Dr. James Giermanski at Power International, "There always seems to be something that DHS does that either doesn't make much sense, is a waste of funds, or is a little frightening. Perhaps the Department's recent Cargo Conveyance Security Technology Demonstrations of container security devices (CSDs) which took place at Sandia National Laboratory in Albuquerque, New Mexico is a little of all three. Unfortunately, it exemplifies the level of knowledge that DHS Science and Technology (S&T) Directorate has with respect to commercial applications of existing CSDs."
