Enterprise Security System (ESS)

Abstract

The Defense Counterintelligence Security Agency (DCSA) is a strategic asset to the nation and our allies - continuously ensuring a trusted federal, industrial, and affiliated workforce, and enabling industry's delivery of uncompromised capabilities by leveraging advanced technologies and innovation. DCSA uniquely blends critical technology protection, trusted personnel vetting, counterintelligence, and professional education and certification to advance and preserve America's strategic edge. National Industrial Security System (NISS) development effort consist of continued enhancements in response to user community requirements. These requirements include enhancements to Key Management Personnel (KMP) monitoring, NATO Control Point Inspection Triage Outreach Program, NISP Oversight Report, Outgoing Foreign Visits and enables Industry to initiate Facility Profile updates. A separate, parallel development effort will facilitate a SIPR NISS baseline to allow 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). DCSA will acquire, develop, and deploy digital automation and continuous vetting capabilities (i.e. data integration, link analysis, anomaly detection, artificial intelligence, business processing, advanced analytics) to comply with Public Law 116-92 Sec 845 & 847. These capabilities will also identify and evaluate supply chain risks; identify and evaluate Foreign Ownership Control or Influence (FOCI) risks; and implement an entity vetting capability. Starting in FY2023 the funding for Enterprise Security Service transfers to PE 0308609V National Industrial Security System (NISS) Software Pilot Program.
