SOFTWARE ENGINEERING TECHNICAL PRACTICES - NETWORKED SYSTEMS SURVIVABILITY PROGRAM (NSS)

Abstract

NSS identifies, develops, matures, and broadly transitions new technologies, system development practices, and system management practices that enable informed trust and confidence in using information and communication technology. This Program houses the Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT), a critical asset which provides DoD and other government and private sector organizations with the information and training necessary to improve the ability to protect information infrastructures from current and emerging threats. NSS's Survivable Systems Engineering (SSE) Initiative develops and adapts practices, tools, techniques, and measures for addressing security and survivability issues in all phases of the development and acquisition lifecycles for software and software-reliant systems. The Assuring Network Dependent Missions (ANM) Initiative concentrates on the bodies of practice, tools, and security technologies that address the dynamics of operational systems, seeking to ensure that fielded systems meet their survivability requirements as vulnerabilities and threats evolve.
