I assisted in the development of a border porosity study in the Balkans, which was based on tracking and mapping of known smuggling routes. I formed strategies and plans to reduce such traffic and, to increase effectiveness and the reliability of customs and border officials. Strategies were based on my knowledge of the interaction of telecommunications, IT, and GSM technology. • Responsibilities: discovering/proposing new or innovative means of overlapping security and control on the border regions. We included new types of technology, as high-levels of security were required. • Skills: IT, TCP/IP, GSM, SWOT, GPS, GIS, data and intelligence collection and analysis, strategic analysis, project management. • Targets: identifying cost effective methods and technologies with easy implementation, control and security, to effectively decrease unauthorized border traffic.
