This book was released on 2001-09 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increased use of the Internet and the growth of electronic commerce within the Department of Defense (DoD) has led to the development and implementation of the DoD Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). Any PKI can only serve its intended purpose if there is trust within the system. This thesis reviews the basics of public (or asymmetric) key cryptography and its counterpart, symmetric key cryptography. It outlines the DoD's PKI implementation plan and the user roles identified within the infrastructure. Because a PKI relies entirely on trust, training for all users of a PKI is essential. The current approach to PKI training within the DoD will not provide all of its users with the required level of understanding of the system as a whole, or of the implications and ramifications that their individual actions may have upon the system. The decentralized, segmented, and inconsistent approach to PKI training will result in a lack of trust within the PKI. Training for the DoD PKI must be consistent, current, appropriate, and available to all users at any time. The author proposes a web-based training framework for the DoD PKI. The basic requirements and design of the framework are presented, and a prototype is developed for further testing and evaluation. Without the proper attention to training, the DoD PKI will be at risk, and may not perform its intended functions of providing the required authenticity and integrity across the various networks upon which DoD conducts business.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This PKI Implementation Plan for the Department of the Navy (DON) provides a roadmap for Navy and Marine Corps planners and managers to carry out the DoD PKI policy and addresses the general activities and objectives associated with implementation of the Navy and Marine Corps portions of the Class 3, Class 4 (FORTEZZA), and Target Class 4 DoD PKIs. This implementation plan is consistent with the 6 May 1999 "DoD Public Key Infrastructure" memorandum released by the Deputy Secretary of Defense, as modified by the DoD Chief Information Officer (CIO) on 12 August 2000, as well as the 29 October 1999 DoD PKI Implementation Plan. Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) N643 and Headquarters, Marine Corps (HQMC) C4 will promulgate detailed implementation guidance within their respective chains-of-command as necessary to accomplish the specific activities and achieve the specific objectives outlined in this plan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global threat landscape is constantly evolving and remaining competitive and modernizing our digital environment for great power competition is imperative for the Department of Defense. We must act now to secure our future.This Digital Modernization Strategy is the cornerstone for advancing our digital environment to afford the Joint Force a competitive advantage in the modern battlespace.Our approach is simple. We will increase technological capabilities across the Department and strengthen overall adoption of enterprise systems to expand the competitive space in the digital arena. We will achieve this through four strategic initiatives: innovation for advantage, optimization, resilient cybersecurity, and cultivation of talent.The Digital Modernization Strategy provides a roadmap to support implementation of the National Defense Strategy lines of effort through the lens of cloud, artificial intelligence, command, control and communications and cybersecurity.This approach will enable increased lethality for the Joint warfighter, empower new partnerships that will drive mission success, and implement new reforms enacted to improve capabilities across the information enterprise.The strategy also highlights two important elements that will create an enduring and outcome driven strategy. First, it articulates an enterprise view of the future where more common foundational technology is delivered across the DoD Components. Secondly, the strategy calls for a Management System that drives outcomes through a metric driven approach, tied to new DoD CIO authorities granted by Congress for both technology budgets and standards.As we modernize our digital environment across the Department, we must recognize now more than ever the importance of collaboration with our industry and academic partners. I expect the senior leaders of our Department, the Services, and the Joint Warfighting community to take the intent and guidance in this strategy and drive implementation to achieve results in support of our mission to Defend the Nation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO reviewed the Department of Defense's (DOD) efforts to reduce its formal training infrastructure, focusing on: (1) the size of the active forces' formal training infrastructure; and (2) planned, completed, or ongoing plans to reduce this infrastructure. GAO found that: (1) the formal military training and education cost per student increased about $4,200 between fiscal years (FY) 1987 and 1995; (2) despite a decrease in the training workload, training costs have increased about $745 million more than normal inflation between FY 1987 and 1995; (3) DOD officials reported that the main reason for the increase is the use of private-sector and civilian instructors; (4) planned or ongoing actions to reduce training infrastructure include reducing the number of locations at which a service teaches a particular course, increasing interservice training for similar curricula, increasing the number of private-sector instructors, courses, and training facilities, and closing or realigning bases that provide formal training; (5) DOD lacks an overall plan to guide and measure training infrastructure reduction (6) the number of locations that provide training decreased from 265 to 172 between FY 1987 and 1995; (7) DOD estimated that increases in interservice training have resulted in about $300 million in savings and that future course consolidations and collocations would result in one-time savings of about $4.4 million and annual recurring savings of about $7.28 million; and (8) despite expected base closures and mission realignments, DOD expects that excess training infrastructure will continue to exist.

Download or read book Homeland Security and Critical Infrastructure Protection written by Ryan K. Baggett and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2018-07-11 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling overview of systems and strategies implemented to safeguard U.S. resources from a plethora of threats, the vulnerabilities and security gaps in these infrastructure systems, and options to enable the future security of the homeland. Since the first edition of this book was published in 2009, significant changes have occurred in the security landscape, both domestically and internationally. This second edition is thoroughly updated to reflect those changes, offering a complete review of the various security and resilience measures currently in place and potential strategies to safeguard life and property within the U.S. homeland. As noted in the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's National Preparedness Goal, the mission area of protection is vital to the homeland in its focus on actions to protect people, vital interests, and our nation's way of life. With that in mind, this book discusses strategies such as risk analysis and assessment, information sharing, and continuity planning. The authors focus on relevant and timely threats and hazards facing specific infrastructure components including, but not limited to, agriculture and food, banking and finance, water, energy, telecommunications, and transportation. The dynamic posture of critical infrastructure security and resilience (CISR) underscores the importance of an integrated, layered all-hazards approach. In describing this approach, the book includes new chapters on planning and guidance, public and private partnerships, cyber issues and threats, and careers in infrastructure protection. Additions such as discussion questions, learning objectives, and fundamental concepts for each chapter provide additional direction for instructors and students alike.
