INSPECTION (CCRI) PREPARATION PROCESSES AND
REQUIREMENTS
1. Situation
a. Our adversaries continue to become more technically and tactically sophisticated. They are utilizing low-cost attack tools making them a formidable and dangerous threat. Others are far more sophisticated with financial backing and nation state support. The implementation and adherence to policies and guidelines that support strong protection, detection, response, restoration, remediation, and mitigation activities are key to achieving and maintaining dominance on the cyber battlefield.
It is imperative to implement timely, cost-effective, and proactive cybersecurity practices to increase the Marine Corps’ ability to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities and threats before exploitation can occur.
b. Marine Corps Cybersecurity takes an enterprise-wide approach to protect United States Marine Corps critical information and intelligence from internal and external threats and attacks. This ensures that our Warfighters and Supporting Organizations are able to achieve and maintain information dominance across the full spectrum of military operations. The Marine Corps Cybersecurity plan will be implemented in a unified approach to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of unclassified, sensitive, and classified information that is received, stored, processed, displayed, or transmitted by Marine Corps information systems; consolidates and focuses Marine Corps efforts in securing the information, including its associated systems and resources; increases the level of trust of this information and the originating source;
and provides identity assurance to all users accessing the Marine Corps Enterprise Network (MCEN).
c. Operationally, failure to implement the proactive or corrective cybersecurity measures identified in this Order may result in critical information loss, capture, corruption, or lack of timely access which may potentially lead to mission failure. Administratively, it may prevent system or enclave accreditation, installation, or operation. System administrators or network personnel may block access to information systems that have been determined to adhere to poor cybersecurity practices or fail to implement identified corrective measures. Additionally, systems on the MCEN processing intelligence information are required to adhere to the provisions of this Order.
d. The Marine Corps Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) networks and systems are protected under the Marine Corps Director of Intelligence (DIRINT) SCI Enterprise Office (SEO).
The SEO provides an enterprise-wide approach to protect Marine Corps critical SCI residing within Marine Corps Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance Enterprise (MCISR-E) from intended or unintended malicious attacks from internal and external threats. The SEO Cybersecurity responsibilities are governed by policies and directives from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) and the National Security Agency (NSA).
e. The Marine Corps Cybersecurity order develops policy and provides guidance that is in accordance with the references shown throughout this Order.
2. Cancellation. MCO 5239.2A, MARADMIN 333/08
3. Mission. This Order in accordance with reference (a) provides cybersecurity policy, procedures, tasks, conditions, and standards implementation guidance applicable to enhance and enable command and control on the MCEN. An Annex providing the policy, procedures, and standards implementation guidance for Marine Corps SCI Networks will be published 180 days from the issuance of this Order. Supplemental cybersecurity guidance, updates, or revisions will be provided through Enterprise Cybersecurity Manuals (ECSMs), Marine Administration (MARADMIN) messages, and Marine Corps Bulletins (MCBUL).
a. This Order in accordance with reference (b) delineates all organizational actions required to ensure the security of voice video, and data communications, digital information in all of its forms, and the security of the systems and networks where information is stored, accessed, processed, and transmitted.
This includes precautions taken to guard against cyber attacks in order to provide an end-to-end secure networking capability to protect and deliver secure information at the right time, to the right place, and in a useable format, enabling commanders to exercise freedom of command and control.
b. The MCEN is the Marine Corps network-of-networks and approved interconnected network segments supporting the Marine Corps Command, Control, and business process communications. It comprises people, processes, logical and physical infrastructure, architecture, topology, and Cyberspace Operations that operate according to Marine Corps policy. The MCEN is both, the MCEN - NIPRNet (MCEN-N) and the MCEN SIPRNet (MCEN-S); however, this document will refer to both networks as one MCEN.
4. Execution
a. Commander’s Intent and Concept of Operations
(1) Commander’s Intent. In accordance with references
(c) and (d) the Marine Corps will employ a comprehensive cybersecurity program designed to protect and defend the MCEN and the data in transit and the data at rest on the MCEN to ultimately support the commander’s information needs. New technologies such as web services and portals are emerging in support of developmental, training, testing, exercise, and operational deployments. This Order contains a comprehensive framework for security governance and controls over information resources and will facilitate the rapid assimilation of new technologies and information processing methodologies. Per references (e) and (f) a professional cyber workforce will execute this framework in a flexible, proactive manner and will continue to improve efforts to effectively manage and monitor network performance and system activities. The Marine Corps must employ a cybersecurity capability that supports a robust, enterprise-wide, “best network security practices”, and posture to improve cybersecurity implementation and situational awareness across the MCEN. In accordance with this Order, the Marine Corps will incorporate proactive protection, detection, reaction, disaster recovery, and restoration capabilities to include the detection of, reporting on, and employment of countermeasures against unauthorized activities. Concurrently, the effectiveness of cybersecurity programs, policies, and procedures will be reviewed by means of established procedures (i.e., Headquarters Marine Corps Command, Control, Communication, and Computer Cybersecurity Division (C4 CY) monthly security evaluations; Marine Corps Operational Test and Evaluation (MCOTEA) operational Information Assurance (IA) assessments;
CCRIs; Inspector General of the Marine Corps (IGMC)).
(2) Concept of Operations. The Marine Corps will adopt an information system “life-cycle management” approach as shown in references (g), (h), and (i), in applying uniform standards for the protection of Marine Corps Information Technology (IT) resources that display, transact, transmit, or receive information. The Marine Corps will iteratively assess threats, vulnerabilities, risks, and a spectrum of cybersecurity practices to identify, document, and implement appropriate countermeasures to effectively mitigate risks to an acceptable operational level.
