Change Summary Explanation
National Industrial Security System (NISS) development consists of continued enhancements in response to user community requirements. These requirements consist of enhancements to Key Management Personnel (KMP) monitoring, NATO Control Point Inspection Triage Outreach Program, NISP Oversight Report, Outgoing Foreign Visits and enabling Industry with the ability to initiate Facility Profile updates. A separate, parallel development effort will facilitate a SIPR NISS baseline consisting of an alternative Single Sign-On (SSO) capability to National Industrial Security Program (NISP) Central Access Information Security System (NCAISS), as well as Cross Domain Solution (CDS) for movement of NIPR-based data to SIPR for subsequent reporting and data aggregation. Development activities will include interface work between NISS and the Defense Information System for Security (DISS), NISP Contracts Classification System (NCCS) and Enterprise Mission Assurance Support Service (eMASS) systems as well as initial planning for refactoring of NISS functionality into National Background Investigative Services (NBIS). Achievement of Full Operational Capability (FOC) delayed due to the of the Period of Performance (PoP)2 which is scheduled for a March 2020 completion. The Adaptive Data Exchange (ADX)/ Joint Cyber Intelligence Tool Suite (JCITS) will assist DCSA with analysis of network telemetry data gathered from the JCITS unclassified cyber threat intelligence data, cleared contractor reporting and other government agency feeds for detecting anomalous behavior and enhancing data. The Defense Information System for Security (DISS) which transfers to DCSA from DHRA/ DMDC beginning FY2021 is to consolidate the DoD personnel security mission into an enterprise adjudicative case management system that will automate the implementation of improved national investigative and adjudicative standards to eliminate costly and inefficient work processes and increase information collaboration across the community. This will provide comprehensive capabilities to perform processing and verification of security clearances for all DoD military personnel, civilians and contrators including the technology and processes to implement Continuous Evaluation.
