Information Systems Security Program

Abstract

The Information Systems Security Program (ISSP) mission focuses on developing Department of Defense (DoD) enterprise solutions to Combatant Commands, Services, and Defense-wide agencies to ensure critical mission execution in the face of cyber attacks. The ISSP ensures that, the network, the computing centers, and core enterprise services will evolve to better support a joint cybersecurity/information assurance model that has common enterprise-scale perimeter defenses and will support a broad range of sharing policies from completely unclassified to tightly-held within a classified community. The ISSP will test and develop active-active defensive capabilities; test and integrate software defined networking and orchestration closed-loop security; perform research, development and engineering of emerging cyber situational awareness technologies; harden the network by providing architecture support, systems engineering and analytical functions for Endpoint and Perimeter defense capabilities; cyber IT infrastructure and automation support to deploy enterprise-wide next generation identity technologies; and develop and evolve an integrated cyber domain security workforce to be on the leading edge of defensive capabilities.

Change Summary Explanation
The increase of +$30.200 in FY 2020 is due to +$36.000 of additional funding for Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM) and the Secure Application Development Program. The funding will be used to develop and implement the Automated Account Management data sharing and automation and Master User Record (MUR) for the automated account provisioning effort within ICAM (+$28.000); resource R&D innovation efforts to evaluate commercial meta/virtual directory data synchronization services in alignment with identity management, credentialing, active authentication, federation, and automated authorization for the federalized authentication services within ICAM (+$2.000); and support innovation activities and mission priorities for secure application development and quantitative analysis tools within the Secure Application Development program (+$6.000). This is offset by a decrease of -$5.800 in FY 2020 is due to the implementation of a standard information technology (IT) enterprise patch management capability.
