Study Notes

DODI 8510.01 Overview

  • The document outlines the Risk Management Framework (RMF) for Department of Defense (DoD) Information Technology (IT).
  • It establishes protocols for assessing and managing cybersecurity risks related to DoD IT systems.

Key Oversight Roles

  • DoD Chief Information Officer (DoD CIO) oversees RMF implementation and directs cybersecurity risk management.
  • Director, Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) develops RMF training and awareness products for DoD Components.
  • Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics (USD(AT&L)) coordinates RMF with Defense Acquisition System processes.
  • Director, Operational Test and Evaluation (DOT&E) reviews operational testing plans for cybersecurity evaluation.

Security Management Responsibilities

  • Director, National Security Agency/Chief, Central Security Service (DIRNSA/CHCSS) provides information system security engineering services supporting RMF.
  • Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS) ensures the Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS) supports IS and PIT system categorization.
  • Information Systems Security Manager (ISSM) ensures products and services are evaluated prior to integration into systems.

Documents and References

  • Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) document applicable DoD policies, security requirements, and best practices.
  • Security Requirements Guides (SRGs) provide general security compliance guidelines.
  • DoD Instruction 8500.01 mandates appointment of trained Authorizing Officials (AOs) for all DoD IS and PIT systems.

Risk Management Framework Structure

  • The DoD RMF utilizes a three-tiered approach for cybersecurity risk management according to NIST SP 800-39.
  • Tier 1 addresses risk management at the DoD enterprise level.

Authorization and Monitoring

  • DoD Information Security Risk Management Committee (ISRMC) performs the DoD Risk Executive Function.
  • Defense IA Security Accreditation Working Group (DSAWG) resolves authorization issues pertaining to community risk sharing.
  • Authorizing Officials (AOs) must monitor system-level Plans of Action and Milestones (POA&Ms).

System Security Planning

  • Information System Owners (ISOs) develop and maintain security plans detailing security requirements and controls.
  • All DoD IS and PIT systems are required to create a Security Plan outlining security requirements.

RMF Process Steps

  • The RMF consists of six steps: Categorize, Select Security Controls, Implement Security Controls, Assess Security Controls, Authorize System, Monitor Security Controls.
  • PMs are mandated to conduct periodic reviews and assessments of IS and PIT systems at least annually.

Deployment and Documentation

  • Enterprise Mission Assurance Support Service (eMASS) is utilized for posting security authorization documentation.
  • Type authorization is used for deploying identical copies of an IS or PIT system.

Vulnerability and Compliance

  • The Security Assessment Report (SAR) documents findings of compliance based on assessments by the Security Control Assessor (SCA).
  • Plans of Action and Milestones (POA&M) identify remediation tasks for vulnerabilities.

Continuous Monitoring

  • The Information Systems Security Manager (ISSM) is tasked with continuously monitoring security-relevant events and configuration changes.

Knowledge Service

  • The Knowledge Service (KS) serves as the authoritative source for RMF guidance and DoD RMF policy.
  • The Risk Management Framework Technical Advisory Group (RMF TAG) manages KS content and provides authoring support.
