It maintains the Certification and Accreditation (C&A) data repository, capturing the DIACAP documentation (artifacts, validation results, and Information Assurance Risk Assessment results, and Designated Approving Authority (DAA) accreditation decisions) and POA&M on all MDA information systems. This project supports the monitoring and tracking of Cybersecurity mitigations detailed in Information Technology security POA&Ms. Activities include preparation of C&A documentation and accreditation recommendations to the MDA Senior Information Assurance Officer/Certification Authority (CA) and DAA. Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V) team actions ensure the availability, integrity, authentication, confidentiality and non-repudiation of the MDA mission, test and administrative systems.
