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 12,100 industrial facilities and about 850,000 cleared contractors), and accreditation of more than 55,000 workstations across multiple classified network domains that process classified information, and 160 Secure Internet Protocol Router Networks (SIPRNet) nodes.
