This unclassified information can, by itself or when aggregated, provide significant insight into U.S. Army capabilities.
identified by Army PEOs, PMs and science and technology project managers.
Te CP&T list includes program, project and technology names and descriptions, contract numbers and contractor cage codes—short ID numbers that provide a standard method of identifying contractors and their facilities. Tis information is cross-checked with JAPEC to determine if the systems or tech- nologies have been threatened or compromised elsewhere across DOD. Tis provides PEOs and PMs access to a wide array of intelligence threat reporting, law enforcement and counterintel- ligence reports and security information with which they can make informed risk management decisions. For example, if a hacker breached the system of a Marine Corps contractor and obtained data related to a joint program, Army stakeholders would know quickly and could then take steps to prevent fur- ther intrusion and damage.
To further assist PMs, the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Research and Engineering will soon publish a DOD directive that establishes policy and assigns responsi- bilities to assess technical information losses and determine consequences. In the interim, ASA(ALT) drafted a policy memorandum and implementation plan that defines the roles and responsibilities for the Army acquisition community to identify and protect CTI. Additionally, DIBCSO is educat- ing all Army PEOs on the JAPEC and their responsibility to identify and protect CTI.
CONCLUSION With the increasing reliance on technology as a vital part of Army modernization, DOD and the Army will continue to be the target of adversaries’ efforts to collect CTI. Because most technical data resides on unclassified, non-DOD networks, tra- ditional methods of protection are no longer sufficient.
Te DOD JAPEC is helping to thwart these attempts by develop- ing a system that makes it easier for DOD stakeholders to increase information sharing, collaboration, analysis,
risk management
and protection. Trough this work, JAPEC strives to evolve cur- rent practices from reactionary to proactive, with the end goal of preventing degradation of the U.S. advantage in the battlespace.
SOSE&I continues to work with JAPEC to establish Army pro- cesses and methodology that can be consistently applied across all Army critical programs and technology. Effective processes and methodology are key to ensuring that we deny our adversar- ies access to our most critical unclassified CTI and, as a result, retain our innovative capabilities.
