Synopsis NIST 800-171: System Security Plan (SSP) Template and Workbook by : Mark A. RUSSO CISSP-ISSAP CEH

THE SYSTEM SECURITY PLAN IS A CRITICAL DOCUMENT FOR NIST 800-171, AND WE HAVE RELEASED A MORE EXPANSIVE AND UP TO DATE SECOND EDITION FOR 2019A major 2019 NIST 800-171 development is the expected move by the Department of Justice (DOJ) against any company being held to either FAR Clause 52.204-21, DFARS Clause 252.204-7012, or both; if DOJ can show the company has violated its contract it will be subject to federal prosecution if they fail to meet NIST 800-171. Discussions of the author with key personnel working with NIST and DOJ on this matter raises the seriousness of not meeting NIST 800-171. Sources to the author are expecting in 2019 and beyond the likelihood of civil and criminal prosecution for those companies who: 1) have a breach of their IT environment, 2) that data, specifically Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)/Critical Defense Information (CDI), is damaged or stolen, and the 3) DOJ can demonstrate negligence by the company, will result in federal prosecution. This is part of a ongoing series of Cybersecurity Self Help documents being developed to address the recent changes and requirements levied by the Federal Government on contractors wishing to do business with the government. The intent of these supplements is to provide immediate and valuable information so business owners and their Information Technology (IT) staff need. The changes are coming rapidly for cybersecurity contract requirements. Are you ready? We plan to be ahead of the curve with you with high-quality books that can provide immediate support to the ever-growing challenges of cyber-threats to the Government and your business.

Synopsis Guide for Developing Security Plans for Federal Information Systems by : U.s. Department of Commerce

The purpose of the system security plan is to provide an overview of the security requirements of the system and describe the controls in place or planned for meeting those requirements. The system security plan also delineates responsibilities and expected behavior of all individuals who access the system. The system security plan should be viewed as documentation of the structured process of planning adequate, cost-effective security protection for a system. It should reflect input from various managers with responsibilities concerning the system, including information owners, the system owner, and the senior agency information security officer (SAISO). Additional information may be included in the basic plan and the structure and format organized according to agency needs, so long as the major sections described in this document are adequately covered and readily identifiable.

Synopsis Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information in Nonfederal Systems and Organizations by : National Institute of Standards and Tech

NIST SP 800-171A Rev 2 - DRAFT Released 24 June 2019 The protection of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) resident in nonfederal systems and organizations is of paramount importance to federal agencies and can directly impact the ability of the federal government to successfully conduct its essential missions and functions. This publication provides agencies with recommended security requirements for protecting the confidentiality of CUI when the information is resident in nonfederal systems and organizations; when the nonfederal organization is not collecting or maintaining information on behalf of a federal agency or using or operating a system on behalf of an agency; and where there are no specific safeguarding requirements for protecting the confidentiality of CUI prescribed by the authorizing law, regulation, or governmentwide policy for the CUI category listed in the CUI Registry. The requirements apply to all components of nonfederal systems and organizations that process, store, or transmit CUI, or that provide security protection for such components. The requirements are intended for use by federal agencies in contractual vehicles or other agreements established between those agencies and nonfederal organizations. Why buy a book you can download for free? We print the paperback book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. It's much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com This book includes original commentary which is copyright material. Note that government documents are in the public domain. We print these paperbacks as a service so you don't have to. The books are compact, tightly-bound paperback, full-size (8 1/2 by 11 inches), with large text and glossy covers. 4th Watch Publishing Co. is a HUBZONE SDVOSB. https: //usgovpub.com

Synopsis Guide to Computer Security Log Management by : Karen Kent

A log is a record of the events occurring within an org¿s. systems & networks. Many logs within an org. contain records related to computer security (CS). These CS logs are generated by many sources, incl. CS software, such as antivirus software, firewalls, & intrusion detection & prevention systems; operating systems on servers, workstations, & networking equip.; & applications. The no., vol., & variety of CS logs have increased greatly, which has created the need for CS log mgmt. -- the process for generating, transmitting, storing, analyzing, & disposing of CS data. This report assists org¿s. in understanding the need for sound CS log mgmt. It provides practical, real-world guidance on developing, implementing, & maintaining effective log mgmt. practices.

Synopsis End-to-end Integration with IBM Sterling B2B Integration and Managed File Transfer solutions by : James Ballentine

Across numerous vertical industries, enterprises are challenged to improve processing efficiency as transactions flow from their business communities to their internal systems and vice versa, simplify management and expansion of the external communities, accommodate customer and supplier preferences, govern the flow of information, enforce policy and standards, and protect sensitive information. Throughout this process, external partners must be on-boarded and off-boarded, information must flow across multiple communications infrastructures, and data must be mapped and transformed for consumption across multiple applications. Some transactions require synchronous or real-time processing while others are of a more periodic nature. For some classes of customer or supplier, the enterprise might prefer a locally-managed, on-premise solution. For some types of communities (often small businesses), an as-a-Service solution might be the best option. Many large enterprises combine the on-premise and as-a-Service approach to serve different categories of business partners (customers or suppliers). This IBM® Redbooks® publication focuses on solutions for end-to-end integration in complex value chains and presents several end-to-end common integration scenarios with IBM Sterling and IBM WebSphere® portfolios. We believe that this publication will be a reference for IT Specialists and IT Architects implementing an integration solution architecture involving IBM Sterling and IBM WebSphere portfolios.
