CHAPTER 9, PART 2

USDA INFORMATION SYSTEMS SECURITY PROGRAM

1 BACKGROUND

On January 23, 2002, Congress enacted Public Law, 107-347, E-Government Act of 2002. The Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) of 2002, Title III, of this law requires that each agency have effective information security controls over Information Technology (IT) to support Federal operations and assets and provide a mechanism for improved oversight of Federal agency information security programs. This Act was designed to strengthen OMB Circular A-130, Appendix III that initially established specific requirements for all agency security programs. As technology has grown more complex and open, the need for effective Federal information security programs in each agency and staff office is essential. In USDA, this program is referred to as the Information Systems Security Program (ISSP).

USDA has undertaken an aggressive role in support of E-gov to include ensuring that IT systems have been certified and accredited or otherwise authorized as being properly secured. All of these actions require that each agency ISSP be responsive and responsible in supporting security requirements. The material in this chapter is designed to outline the responsibilities of each agency and staff office ISSP and to specifically define the security roles of the Agency Administrator or Head, Chief Information Officer (CIO) and Information Systems Security Program Manager (ISSPM). These positions are vital components in securing USDA corporate information technology assets by providing effective agency management and oversight of its ISSP.

2 POLICY

All USDA agencies and staff offices will organize, implement and maintain an ISSP that ensures security of all information technology assets. Security must be adequately addressed in all phases of the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC), normally commencing in the IT System Initiation Phase. Each agency ISSP will include the following responsibilities:

· Categorize sensitivity of information and information systems in accordance with FIPS 199;

· Conduct regular risk assessments for IT systems and computing devices;

· Implement effective risk mitigation strategies;

· Conduct formal Certification and Accreditation (C&A) of all agency IT systems;

· Implement security controls throughout the System Life Cycle;

· Use the Capital Planning and Investment Controls (CPIC) process to formulate and plan security costs for all systems;

· Monitor the system Configuration Management (CM) process of all systems;

· Prepare agency annual Program and System Specific Security Plans;

· Manage an effective Security Awareness and Training Program;

· Manage the agency Security Incident Response Program;

· Conduct annual self-assessment of the ISSP using NIST 800-26 and NIST 800-53;

· Monitor IT systems using audit trails, controls logs and other mechanisms;

· Establish an electronic inventory of all IT systems and computing devices;

· Maintain agency IT inventory in the Enterprise Architecture Repository (EAR);

· Disseminate department policy and procedures to all agency personnel;

· Respond to regular and ad hoc reporting requirements and audits by internal or external agencies; and

· Monitor agency compliance to USDA, OMB, NIST and other governing bodies’ policy for security.

Agencies may elect either a traditional ISSP structure with the responsibilities delineated in Responsibilities, Section 4, of this policy or use the alternative structure defined in Procedures, Section 3 below. An alternative structure is useful in agencies of greater than 1,000 IT users (employees, contractors, volunteers, partners, or customers), as it outlines the tactical security responsibilities below the ISSPM level. The duties of the ISSPM/ISSM can be designated as the agency sees fit, as long as all responsibilities are designated in writing and effectively executed. Associate CIO for Cyber Security (ACIO CS) must be advised that the alternative structure is being implemented and each agency must comply with the duties defined for this structure.

Each Agency Head or CIO will formally designate at least one Information Systems Security Program Manager (ISSPM) using the Designation of ISSPM and Deputy ISSPM form contained in Appendix A to serve in these positions. These forms will be sent to the ACIO CS when individuals are assigned to these positions. The duties and responsibilities of an ISSPM are diverse, comprehensive and complex. This position is one of high sensitivity and level of trust and therefore will be filled only by full time government personnel. In addition, this position has a requirement for high confidentiality due to the critical nature of the investigatory and compliance work. Therefore space should be assigned to the ISSPM and Deputy ISSPM that affords locking files and the ability to conduct meetings of a highly sensitive nature in private. In no case, are ISSPMs and Deputy ISSPMs to be assigned to a work/office area with individuals not associated with information security. To successfully establish, manage and improve an agency/staff office/program area ISSP, the ISSPM shall receive comprehensive annual security training. Agencies/staff offices/program areas shall appoint a Deputy ISSPM and as many Information Systems Security Officers (ISSOs) as necessary to comply with this policy. The agency ISSPM shall be recognized as the organization’s CS expert, leader and point of contact. The agency ISSPM, Deputy ISSPM and ISSM/ISSO positions are considered to be High Risk Public Trust positions as defined by 5 CFR 731. Each agency will ensure that the individuals in these positions have the appropriate level of background investigation completed. Additionally, each agency is responsible for determining the National Defense sensitivity level of these positions as defined in 5 CFR 732 and obtaining the appropriate level of security clearance. Individuals in these positions will have a direct reporting relationship with the agency CIO.

Policy Exception Requirements – Agencies/Staff Offices and program areas that cannot comply with this policy will submit all policy exception requests directly to the ACIO CS. Temporary exceptions to policy will be considered only in terms of implementation timeframes and progress toward meeting the standards will be monitored by OCIO CS. Exceptions that are approved will require that each agency report this Granted Policy Exception (GPE) as a Plan of Action & Milestone (POA&M) in their FISMA reporting, with a GPE notation, until full compliance is achieved. Interim exceptions expire with each fiscal year. Compliance exceptions that require longer durations will be considered for renewal on an annual basis with an updated timeline for completion. OCIO CS will monitor all approved exceptions.

3 PROCEDURES

Agencies and staff offices electing to adopt a three-tier ISSP management approach will have a structure comprised of:

· Information Systems Security Program Manager (ISSPM): This person and the deputy ISSPM are responsible for managing the ISS efforts for an entire agency or staff office. This person is a program manager responsible for the strategic security requirements of the program to include planning, budget review, consolidation of agency security reports, and coordination of the ISSP into the culture of the entire organization. ISSPMs will act as consultants for ISSM/ISSOs and work with them to resolve highly technical matters, when necessary. Ultimately, the ISSPM is still responsible for efficient operation of the overall ISSP.

· Information Systems Security Manager (ISSM): This individual(s), including deputy(ies), is responsible for managing the tactical efforts of a business, functional, or operational entity within an agency. Their responsibilities include the daily operational security issues of the unit and overall management of the “front line” security requirements for the unit. This individual may often be called upon to assist in the resolution of certain system security issues.

· Information Systems Security Officer (ISSO): This person(s), including deputy(ies), is responsible for the day-to-day security administration for one or more information systems. Theirs is an operational security effort regarding the system(s) for which they are responsible.
