Agenda

1. NAS Enterprise Information System Security (NEISS)Vic Patel, FAAICAP, ACP WG-IMay 28th – 30th

2. Agenda • Why do we need NEISS • NEISS described • Current status/activities • Future plans

3. Introduction • The NAS Enterprise Information Systems Security (NEISS) Program • Seeks to implement a NAS Security Architecture that is based on Enterprise or “Common” Controls rather than the current system-by-system controls • All NAS and NextGen Programs interface to and use the Common Controls to gain the mitigation benefits • The five Common Controls that comprise NEISS

4. Changing Environment Increases Cyber Security Risks to the NAS Today’s NAS Limited inter-connectivity NextGen Significant inter-connectivity • Planned NAS improvements • Moving to net-centric operations • Moving from custom to commercial software • Cyber threats on the increase External NAS Sensors IP IP Services External users Cyber risk IP SWIM External users Greater use of Internet Protocol (IP) and greater connectivity within the NAS requires an effective Enterprise Information System Security Architecture Aviation Partner Networks

5. Potential Impacts to NAS Are Serious • Major disruption of NAS services possible • Malware can enter the NAS accidently • The NAS can be targeted • Disruption can cause substantial economic loss • Loss of public confidence in the NAS • NAS disruption can interfere with logistical support of military missions

6. The Threat • Cyber exploitation activity has • Grown more sophisticated • More targeted • And more serious • The intelligence community has concluded that nation states • Have the technical capabilities to • Target and disrupt elements of the US information infrastructure • Collect intelligence information for future use against the US • StuxNet – Specifically targeted an Industrial Control System similar to NAS

7. The Challenge It’s hard to keep them out When they get in, it’s hard to find them When we find them, it’s hard to get them out

8. What Can We Do? • Lay a solid foundation • Develop core Enterprise Solutions that position the NAS to deal with an ever increasing problem • Be agile • Develop techniques and approaches useful for defending and countering cyber attacks • Developing and enforcing Enterprise Solutions that can quickly adapt to the changing threat environment and apply to all NAS systems • Be resilient • Adopt approaches for continued operations during cyber attacks • Understand the threat • Characterize the NAS cyber threat environment • Identify tools, techniques, and procedures used by adversaries

9. The Plan:NAS Enterprise Information System Security • NAS ISS architecture was developed to provide a foundational cyber infrastructure for NAS enterprise security beginning now and continuing through NextGen • Doable in five years • Enterprise-wide solutions • Minimal end-system changes • Expand existing program solutions where applicable • Flexible and Scalable - Security solutions can vary over time. • NAS ISS architecture will allow: • Improvements in security technology • New security features

10. The NAS ISS Architecture Keep the bad stuff out Know whom you’re talking to 01101 01101 External Boundary Protection Secured NAS Identity & Key Management Crown Jewels Certified Software Management T&E Internal Policy Enforcement Protect the software supply chain Incident Detection and Response Minimize damage and don’t let it spread If they get in, find them and deal with it

11. NEISS Design Principles Keep the bad stuff out Secured NAS External Boundary Protection Know who’s who Only approved software Certified Software Management Identity & Key Management When they get in, find them and deal with the problem Internal Policy Enforcement Incident Detection and Response Minimize the damage once in and don’t let it spread! • Create a Cyber Security Infrastructure • Enterprise wide • Monitor NAS data flows • Apply cyber security controls to data flows • Majority of implementation involves infrastructure, rather than end-systems • Modify enterprise controls, as new threats & controls warrant it • Ongoing R&D effort • Present controls represent 5 year timeline

12. Under the Hood:What’s Happening in NEISS

13. Why a NAS Enterprise Information System Security (ISS) Architecture Is Needed (I) Growing and evolving cyber security threats Cyber terrorism, cyber crime, cyber vandalism, cyber espionage, cyber war Evolution to support and enable NextGen Increased levels of network connectivity (from point-to-point to net-centricity) Newer technologies (satellite-based surveillance and navigation) Increased complexity from interoperability needs (legacy systems and NextGen implementation) Security is based around individual systems Non-uniform security, the weakest link paradigm applies Costly to implement Individual system security never intended to mitigate the advanced threats

14. Why a NAS Enterprise Information System Security (ISS) Architecture Is Needed (II) Architecture Provides Uniform and enterprise cyber security capabilities Layered cyber security capabilities (defense-in-depth) Robust, resilient, agile and scalable cyber security capabilities Incremental approach

15. Why a NAS Enterprise Information System Security (ISS) Architecture Is Needed (III) • Benefits • Protect the NAS from malware and advance cyber threats Organized crime, terrorist organizations, foreign governments • Provide better opportunities to leverage net-centric services for security • Greater network connectivity, newer technologies, greater complexity • Provide uniform enterprise cyber security capabilities • Reduce complexity, weakest link paradigm • Reduce implementation costs • One enterprise implementation vs. each system’s implementation NEISS will be responsible for the implementation of the NAS EA ISS roadmap

16. External Boundary Protection (EBP) Added Application Gateway EBP consolidates all NAS level security controls that are applied to data that transit the NAS security boundary

17. FTI MATRIX External Boundary Protection (EBP)

18. External Boundary Protection (EBP) Status • Developing AMS artifacts supporting EBP • Working with SWIM and FTI to implement early capability centered around the NAS Enterprise Security Gateway (NESG) • Conducting the Operational Safety Assessment • Future Activities: • Transition strategy • Governance • Guidance • FY13 Legacy NAS transition candidates

19. Identity and Key Management (IKM) The IKM capability allows users and machines to be identified and provides key services for authentication, confidentiality, integrity, and non-repudiation; wherever these functions are needed.

20. Identity and Key Management (IKM) - cont • Status: Actively Developing Requirements • Implementer: SWIM • Accomplishments: • Defined IKM requirements in SWIM S2 FPR, • OSA data collection complete, • Leading implementation of IKM in SWIM Segment 1+ • Future Activities: Implement in test bed the four phase approach regarding integration with legacy systems. • Issues: • Need clarity on allocation of some IKM functions, including Security Token Service • Selection of early adopters • Policy/Standards needed

21. Internal Policy Enforcement (IPE) IPE mitigates the impact of security incidents within the NAS by dividing NAS systems and networks into enclaves and providing internal boundary protection (IBP) security mechanisms at the boundaries between enclaves.

22. Internal Policy Enforcement (IPE) - cont Status: Engineering new environment Implementer: NEISS Accomplishments: Defined Enclave Environment Future Activities: Prototype IPE in test bed. Implement IPE in legacy environment utilizing a four step approach. Solicit support from different lines of business to test IPE design in and design secondary network for data transmission if enclave is compromised. Issues: Concern with cost for possible secondary form of data transmission.
