DHS/USSS/PIA 018 Laboratory Evidence and Information Management System
The United States Secret Service (USSS or Secret Service) has a Laboratory Evidence and Information Management System (LEIMS) that is used to support agency forensic and laboratory personnel. The LEIMS generates and manages a variety of operational and sample processing data, while meeting stringent requirements for traceability, chain of custody, evidence handling, and compliance with legal and regulatory statutes. The Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) update is being conducted to document that LEIMS no longer supports the USSS Forensic Services Division (FSD). Only the USSS Special Services Division (SSD) remains supported by LEIMS.
