IBM is partnering with GW’s homeland security center to support its research on security policy.

The tech-giant is helping to create four task forces with the GW Center for Cyber and Homeland Security on cybersecurity, counterterrorism and intelligence, homeland security strategy and preparedness and infrastructure resilience, the website ExecutiveBiz reported.

The panels will be a collaboration of U.S. and international policymakers, governments, industry members and academic experts, according to ExecutiveBiz.

In a blog post, John Lainhart and Christopher Ballister from the IBM Center for the Business of Government said discussions between the center and IBM are “ongoing how we can work together in future activities that can help government move forward in developing solutions that promote predictive security intelligence.”

Lainhart is a member of the center’s board of directors.

The center, which launched in January 2015, also houses the Program on Extremism, which has gained media attention by researching ISIS, including the group’s social media use.
