Government

The White House has identified cybersecurity as one of the most serious economic and national security challenges facing the US. An executive order and presidential policy directive to Homeland Security has asked industry or directed agencies that immediate steps be taken to adequately defend critical information and communications infrastructure. Federal agencies are focusing on implementing the Administration’s three cybersecurity priorities established recently:

   ♦ Continuous Monitoring

   ♦ Trusted Internet Connection capabilities and traffic consolidation

   ♦ Strong authentication using HSPD-12 Personal Identity Verification cards for logical access.

Meanwhile, GAO continues to find weaknesses in information security policies and practices at major federal agencies which can place the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive information and information systems at risk. Consistent with this risk, reports of security incidents from federal agencies are on the rise, increasing over 650 percent over the past five years. An underlying reason for these weaknesses is that agencies have not fully implemented their information security programs. As a result, they have limited assurance that controls are in place and operating as intended to protect their information resources, thereby leaving them vulnerable to attack or compromise. The most likely reason for this gap is a lack of skilled staff and technological infrastructure optimized to link business operations and security policies.
