TELECOMMUNICATIONS SECURITY SYSTEM DESIGN CONSULTANT

Bruce B. Amlicke, PhD has over 25 years experience in security, telecommunications, emergency operations, engineering, and related fields. He has served as an assessor, principal engineer, and manager for projects in security, computer networking, communications, and radio frequency shielding for high security facilities world wide; computer software development; data base management systems; and military systems design for a variety of government and commercial clients. He has performed and conducted numerous important telecommunications and security surveys and infrastructure needs analysis. Dr. Amlicke served with distinction in the U.S. Air Force from 1967 to 1975. He holds current high-level security clearances with the Department of Defense and other U.S. Government agencies.

Current customers include FEMA, which has selected him to design security and telecommunications for new construction at their facility, the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution for design of a security upgrade for Constitution Hall, the Institute for Defense Analysis for upgrade of a major wargaming model used to predict chemical and biological weapons proliferation and plan for protection, Montgomery College for an extensive security vulnerability survey of their three campuses, and the Government of Nicaragua to design the telecommunications, security, fire alarm, and building automation for a new presidential office building and residence in Managua, their chancellery, and the new International Airport.

Further, the World Bank has asked Dr. Amlicke to assess the feasibility of providing telecommunications links between the five countries bordering the Caspian Sea; for the government of Turkey, Dr. Amlicke was asked to assess the telecommunications damages and aid with the planning of a comprehensive emergency response system (in response to the recent devastating earthquake). As part of this work, he is aiding the design of a national command center for the management of emergencies for Turkey. (This center will be secure for all threats and be able to communicate with all of Turkey in time of disaster.) The World Bank also engaged his services to work on the Poland Rural Development Program as telecommunication advisor. The project serves to increase rural employment by the improvement of rural telecommunication infrastructure. He has also been asked to aid in the planning for the emergency response for future disasters. The Government of Poland has sought his aid on a World Bank sponsored project to upgrade the national voice and data infrastructure in the wake of recent major flooding. He also helped design the national system for metrological data collection and distribution.

Recent major security and telecommunications projects include, the Sakhalin Energy Investment Co, where he has designed the security and telecommunications infrastructure for a commercial facility in Russia. In another project for the state of Ohio, he designed the security, communications, and HEMP shielding for their new emergency management facility. This building which houses the office of the governor for emergency management, the state police, the national guard, and the state interior department, must be protected against all threats. He has also designed SCIFs and HEMP shielding for areas within the Pentagon and other government facilities. He was tasked by the Department of State and other government agencies to create a database of all SCIF, EMP, HEMP, RF, and security standards related to building protection. He then aided them in using this database in designing the standards for protection of a great range of facilities.

He has just completed the renovation of four classroom buildings at the US Naval Academy. The design called for the replacement of all the telecommunications wiring with a modern high-speed system capable of transmitting data at 640 Mega-bits per second.
