Office of the Inspector General and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We determined whether DoD contractors implemented adequate security controls to protect DoD-controlled unclassified information (CUI) maintained on their networks and systems from internal and external cyber threats. CUI is a designation for identifying unclassified information that requires proper safeguarding in accordance with Federal and DoD guidance. DoD does not know the amount of DoD information managed by contractors and cannot determine whether contractors are protecting unclassified DoD information from unauthorized disclosure. Without knowing which contractors maintain CUI on their networks and systems and taking actions to validate that contractors protect and secure DoD information, the DoD is at greater risk of its CUI being compromised by cyberattacks from malicious actors who will target DoD contractors. In addition, a DoD Component contracting office and the contractor did not take appropriate action to address a spillage of classified information to unclassified cloud, internal contractor network, and webmail environments.

Book excerpt: The objective of this audit was to determine the extent to which the DoD developed guidance, conducted training, and oversaw the implementation of the DoD Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) Program. We also reviewed a sample of documents that were identified by the DoD Components and contractors as containing CUI to determine whether the documents had CUI headers and footers, a designation indicator, and portion markings as required by DoD guidance (referred to as the required markings throughout this report). CUI is information created or possessed for the Government that requires safeguarding or dissemination controls according to applicable laws, regulations, and Government-wide policies.

This book was released on 2019-10-07 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ARE YOU IN CYBER-COMPLIANCE FOR THE DOD? UNDERSTAND THE PENDING CHANGES OF CYBERSECURITY MATURITY MODEL CERTIFICATION (CMMC).In 2019, the Department of Defense (DoD) announced the development of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC). The CMMC is a framework not unlike NIST 800-171; it is in reality a duplicate effort to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-171 with ONE significant difference. CMMC is nothing more than an evolution of NIST 800-171 with elements from NIST 800-53 and ISO 27001, respectively. The change is only the addition of third-party auditing by cybersecurity assessors. Even though the DOD describes NIST SP 800-171 as different from CMMC and that it will implement "multiple levels of cybersecurity," it is in fact a duplication of the NIST 800-171 framework (or other selected mainstream cybersecurity frameworks). Furthermore, in addition to assessing the maturity of a company's implementation of cybersecurity controls, the CMMC is also supposed to assess the company's maturity/institutionalization of cybersecurity practices and processes. The security controls and methodologies will be the same--the DOD still has no idea of this apparent duplication because of its own shortfalls in cybersecurity protection measures over the past few decades. (This is unfortunately a reflection of the lack of understanding by senior leadership throughout the federal government.) This manual describes the methods and means to "self-assess," using NIST 800-171. However, it will soon eliminate self-certification where the CMMC is planned to replace self-certification in 2020. NIST 800-171 includes 110 explicit security controls extracted from NIST's core cybersecurity document, NIST 800-53, Security and Privacy Controls for Federal Information Systems and Organizations. These are critical controls approved by the DOD and are considered vital to sensitive and CUI information protections. Further, this is a pared-down set of controls to meet that requirement based on over a several hundred potential controls offered from NIST 800-53 revision 4. This manual is intended to focus business owners, and their IT support staff to meet the minimum and more complete suggested answers to each of these 110 controls. The relevance and importance of NIST 800-171 remains vital to the cybersecurity protections of the entirety of DOD and the nation.

Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. In performing agency tasks, contractor employees often require access to sensitive information (SI) that must be protected from unauthorized disclosure or misuse. This report assesses the: (1) extent to which agency guidance and contracts contain safeguards for contractor access to SI; and (2) adequacy of governmentwide guidance on how agencies are to safeguard SI to which contractors may have access. To conduct this work, the auditor met with officials at 3 agencies selected for their extensive reliance on contractor employees, analyzed 42 of their contract actions for services potentially requiring contractor access to SI, and analyzed the Fed. Acquisition Reg¿n. re: governmentwide guidance on contractor safeguards for access to SI. Illustrations.

This book was released on 2011-05 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This audit addresses concerns that sensitive information continues to be found on DoD public Web sites. The audit evaluated the management of 436 public Web sites for their compliance with mandatory content and approval procedures and training requirements. It also reviewed 3,211 DoD-identified Web sites for public accessibility. The audit found that DoD did not execute enforcement actions for non-compliance with Web site policies and procedures, and components did not fully disseminate required policies and procedures governing publicly accessible Web sites. As a result, sensitive information continues to be posted to DoD public Web sites, putting DoD missions and personnel at risk. Figures. This is a print on demand report.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congress emphasized the importance of developing and maintaining controls to protect Federal information and information systems in its 2001 Defense Authorization Act. The Act requires DoD to develop a cost-effective security control program that continually assesses risk, is tested and evaluated periodically, and is approved by the Director, Office of Management and Budget. The General Accounting Office has also emphasized the importance of information system security controls, as well as financial management, by placing both of these issues on its 2001 list of Government-wide high-risk areas. The Defense Finance and Accounting Service is responsible for financial management in DoD and processes payments for about 5.4 million military, civilians, retirees, and annuitants; 14.4 million invoices; and 5.4 million travel payments. The Defense Information Systems Agency provides computer services to the Defense Finance and Accounting Service and processes finance and accounting data on 47 critical finance and accounting systems at 5 computer centers containing 60 large computers. The Inspector General, DoD, issued 28 audit reports from March 1994 through February 2001 that addressed the effectiveness of security controls over DoD financial data. The 28 reports identified weaknesses in controls over DoD finance and accounting systems.
