DHS/CBP/PIA-045 Assaults and Use of Force Reporting System (AUFRS)

The Assaults and Use of Force Reporting System (AUFRS) is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) web-based application that allows all CBP components to record and track incidents involving assaults against CBP employees, use of force incidents, reportable firearms discharges, and vehicle pursuits by CBP law enforcement agents and officers (CBP LEO). AUFRS makes it possible for CBP leadership and the Law Enforcement Officer/Agent Safety and Compliance Directorate (LESC) to compile and analyze data related to all such incidents to better evaluate the effectiveness of policy, training on the use of force, and deployment of less-lethal devices. CBP is conducting this Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) because AUFRS collects personally identifiable information (PII) about subjects, witnesses, and CBP employees involved in these incidents.
