Guidance for Trusted Internet Connection (TIC) Compliance
 Issued By: OMB - Effective Date: 09.30.2008, 48.576K, pdf
Abstract: In the effort to improve the federal government's incident response capability, this document provides additional guidance and clarification as you coordinate with the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS's) National Cyber Security Division (NCSD).

OMB is requesting an update for all agencies' current Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&Ms) to include the pending modification to the NETWORX contract for TIC services which is scheduled for award on/or about November 15, 2008. The TIC Access Providers' updated POA&Ms should include the above outlined steps. DHS will work with your agency to complete setup/installation activities for Einstein and other DHS specific TIC tasks based on prioritized needs for each agency. Your agency will not be considered fully compliant until DHS has provided notification to OMB of completion of the necessary activities for TIC. OMB is requesting your updated POA&Ms be submitted by October 15, 2008.
