Information Assurance (IA):

Any offered system must meet DoD Cybersecruity and the included Information Assurance (IA) Requirements described below. (Due to the accelerated replacement nature of this procurement, upon award, we require a 180 day delivery/installation/operation completion date.)

Vendor shall only quote items which already have Department of Defense Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation (DIACAP).

Submitting a quote for any requirement under this initiative constitutes full agreement to all specific Service IA requirements and attached IA document.

All supplied software, operating systems, databases, etc. (excluding vendor developed application software) must be on the National Information Assurance Partnership approved products list found at https:/niap-ccevs.org/ or https:/www.commoncriteriaportal.org. Vendor must provide proof that supplied software is on this approved list. Required proof is a print screen from one of the web sites above.

Failure to agree to Cybersecurity or attached IA requirement shall result in rejection of the vendors quote. Failing to disclose that a system cannot meet IA requirements, failure to meet certification timeframes or failure to receive ATO may result in termination for cause in accordance with FAR 52.212-4(m).

What is DIACAP?

The Department of Defense (DoD) Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (DIACAP) is a process by which information systems are certified for compliance with DoD security requirements and accredited for operation by a designated official. DIACAP provides visibility and control for the secure operation of DoD information systems.

The DIACAP considers:

• Mission or business need

• Protection of personally identifiable information

• Protection of the information being processed

• Protection of the system’s information environment

What Is The Process For Becoming DIACAP Compliant?

The DIACAP includes five main activities necessary for compliance, as outlined in the diagram below.

Personnel and Readiness Information Management

Department of Defense Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (DIACAP)

* See the reverse side for more information

Who Should Be Informed About DIACAP?

The DIACAP is important in continually managing the Information Assurance (IA) posture of an organization. It ensures that risk management is applied to information systems within the DoD in order to protect personal privacy, the information environment, and other missions reliant upon shared information.

System Owners, Program Managers, and IA staff should be aware of and understand the DIACAP. This is to establish and/or confirm that IA controls are implemented correctly and effectively within the organization. Individuals with responsibilities over the following tasks should be informed about DIACAP:

• Information system security management and oversight;

• Information system and IA control assessment and monitoring; and

• IA implementation and operation.

For more information, please visit the P&R IM DIACAP webpage online at http:// www.prim.osd.mil/cap/dhra-diacap.

html?p=1.1.1.1.

1146194008C Text Box Attachment 3: DIACAP Information Fact Sheet

The DIACAP package is comprised of five major artifacts:

1) System Identification Profile (SIP) – the set of information gathered during system registration;

2) DIACAP Implementation Plan (DIP) – the plan that contains the strategy for system implementation and the current implementation status of assigned IA Controls for a system;

3) Supporting Documentation for Certification – documents that include actual validation results and artifacts associated with implementation of IA Controls;

4) DIACAP Scorecard – a tool intended to convey information about the IA posture of a DoD information system; and

5) Plan of Action & Milestones (POA&M) – a tool identifying tasks that need to be accomplished to remediate any identified vulnerabilities in a program or system.

What Are The Certification and Accreditation Decisions and How Are They Made?

A Certification Determination is made by a Certification Authority (CA), an active member of the DIACAP Team. The CA assigns a Severity Code – an assessment of the likelihood of system wide IA consequences – to specific findings or deficiencies identified during certification. The Severity Codes are expressed as CAT I, CAT II, and CAT III. CAT I is an indicator of the greatest risk and urgency, and will prevent the system from acquiring an ATO.

The formulation of an Accreditation Decision is made after a certification recommendation has been made, which is supported by the DIACAP Package. The Accreditation Decision applies to an operationally ready instance of a DoD information system and is a balance of the DIACAP considerations.

What Are The Differences Between The Accreditation Decisions?

Once the Designated Approval Authority (DAA) has reviewed the system information and recommendation, there are four possible DAA accreditation decisions that can be made:

• Authorization to Operate (ATO) – full operation approval with a duration of three years;

• Interim Authorization to Operate (IATO) – allows operation to manage IA security weaknesses for a maximum of six months ;

• Interim Authorization to Test (IATT) – a special case for authorizing testing allowing operation for a limited time; or

NOTE: If an Accreditation Decision has not been issued, a system is considered “unaccredited” and is not allowed to operate.

The diagram above shows a process chart for the DIACAP.

How Do I Maintain My System’s ATO?

The Department of Defense Instruction (DoDI) 8500.2 implements policy, assigns responsibilities, and prescribes procedures for applying integrated, layered protection of the DoD information systems and networks under reference. Validation of the DoDI

8500.2 controls must be performed prior to the Accreditation Decision and annually thereafter. A system must draft exception memoranda for IA controls where risk will be assumed and perform quarterly scans. Upon completion of these scans, the system administrator must patch, fix, mitigate, and document open findings.

When Do I Need To Acquire A New ATO For My System?

If the system requires a new ATO before the re-authorization date, it must go through the DIACAP for recertification.

There are two reasons why a system would require a new ATO:

- The system is brand new

- Major changes were made to the system such as:

Please refer to DoDI 8501.01 “DoD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (DIACAP)” to determine whether “major changes” to your system qualifies for a new ATO.

DoDI 8501.01 is located online at http:// www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/ pdf/851001p.pdf.
