There's been intelligence that terrorists would look to programs such as the visa waiver program to exploit.

Terrorists can utilize any vulnerability in the system and that would include outbound shipments.

Whenever we get this kind of intelligence, we regularly share that with our homeland security advisers in every state so they have the same information we have, ... But whenever it is nonspecific, that means it is difficult to mount an operational response. And so we share the information -- we don't raise the threat level.

Well, your premise is correct, that we have to first guard against those who have an affiliation with terrorists and a connection, and so we have watch lists and systems that can make that connection.

My life has never been a part of a big plan. It's more of an unfolding adventure.

Well firstly, that points certainly at the need for international standards on biometrics that would move in the same direction so that we can have the same technical requirements.
