Block Certifications

Block Certifications may be issued at the Secretary of Homeland Security's discretion and are intended to recognize technologies that meet the criteria for Certification as a Qualified Anti-Terrorism Technology (QATT), based on established performance standards or defined technical characteristics. Under this streamlined procedure for providing SAFETY Act coverage, applications from potential Sellers of a QATT that has received Block Certification will receive expedited review and are required to contain submission of minimal information concerning the technical merits of the underlying technology.
