CDR Smith has recently joined forces with Bio Defense Corporation as a member of the Advisory Board to introduce the Mail Defender system as a required element in Force Protection Security Systems for both public and private entities. CDR Smith's experience as the Team Leader for major security initiatives for the Metropolitan Boston Office of Homeland Security places him in a strategic position to identify bio-hazard vulnerabilities throughout the region, nation and the world. CDR Smith's professional experience as the Security Assessment Team Leader for Nuclear Power Plants, National Critical Infrastructure, National Strategic Seaports and DOD Contractor Facilities of Presidential Transport Development in 2003-2005 enables him to best identify terrorist threats and how the Mail Defender System should be implemented to mitigate bio-hazard threats. CDR Smith's military experience as an Antiterrorism Officer and the Director of Security for the Chief of Naval Operation's International Seapower Symposium Series has placed him in a position to work with State of the Art military electronic equipment to defend against terrorist threats. This extensive antiterrorism experience as well as interagency contacts throughout Federal, State and local law enforcement agencies will benefit Bio Defense in future advances.
