Enterprise Security System (ESS)

Abstract

The Defense Security Service (DSS) supports national security and the warfighter through its industrial security oversight, education, and insider threat missions. The DSS is responsible for overseeing the protection of classified information and technologies, and materials in the hands of cleared industry by ensuring compliance with the National Industrial Security Program (NISP) on behalf of 26 Department of Defense (DoD) components and 32 other U.S. Federal agencies. The NISP serves as a single, integrated, cohesive industrial security program to protect classified information and to preserve our Nation’s economic and technological interests. The DSS provides security oversight, counterintelligence coverage and support to approximately 10,000 cleared companies (comprising over 12,800 industrial facilities and about 850,000 cleared contractors), and accreditation of more than 55,000 workstations across multiple and differing classified networks that process classified information and 160 Secure Internet Protocol Router Networks (SIPRNet) nodes.

Change Summary Explanation
The FY19 funding can be attributed to the delays in the NISS Incremental 1 development contract award in Q4 FY15 and the new SIPR infrastructure required for the implementation of NISS Increment 2. Increment 2 will require expanded licensing for Oracle OBIEE and licensing required from the company Software AG Government Solutions (SAGGS), which were not originally taken into consideration. The application will also introduce new cost drivers such as Cross Domain Solution (CDS) and expanded MilCloud footprint as DSS moves forward to comply with the DoD mandate of Cloud-First. NISS will be a driver for secondary/COOP utilization of MilCloud services.
