Information Systems Security Program

Abstract

The NII Information Systems Security Program (ISSP) provides focused research, development, testing and integration of technology and technical solutions critical to the Defense Information Assurance Program (10 USC 2224) through pilot programs and technology demonstration; investment in high leverage, near-term programs that offer immediate Information Assurance (IA) benefit; federal and multi-national initiatives; and short-term studies and research critical to protecting and defending information systems by ensuring their availability, integrity, authentication, confidentiality, and non-repudiation. These efforts focus on Computer Network Defense (CND) and the restoration of information systems by incorporating protection, detection, analysis and reaction and response capabilities; emerging cryptographic technologies; technology transition and IA research capabilities. This program is designed to meet the requirements of 10 USC 2224 (Defense Information Assurance Program), 44 USC 3544, (Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002), OMB Circular A-130, and DoD Directives 8500.1, and 0-8530.1. This program is funded under Budget activity 7, Operational System Development because it integrates technology and technical solutions to the Defense Information Assurance Program.
