Enterprise Secure Computing provides state-of-the-art enterprise level classified computing
infrastructure that enables effective collaboration and information sharing necessary for the NNSA
Enterprise.
In FY 2012, activities will focus on daily operations, infrastructure enhancements and application
deployment. Enterprise Secure Computing funding will support research, development and
deployment of the following capabilities across the nuclear security enterprise
• Continued development of the small site solution to provide a cost effective connectivity for
M&O and Federal sites. This will provide a strategic opportunity to extend ESN beyond the
NNSA and provide for more efficient communications with our external partners.
• Improve Identity and Access Management capabilities with the inclusion of newly acquired
Oracle Products. These products will enhance our capabilities by adding work flow and other
automation enhancements to our user management process.
• Replacement of the Security Event and Incident Management (SEIM) Tool will give NNSA
the ability to improve its defensive posture and gain greater efficiencies with respect to
correlating and identifying the increasing number of threats against the NNSA.
Technology Application Development 2,000 4,996 4,996
Technology Application Development is responsible for developing and advancing policies and
initiatives that will support short and long-term solutions to specific cyber security needs at the
NNSA sites and headquarters locations. Technological innovation, research and development are
critical components for NNSA to protect its assets in national and global technology driven
environments. The research and technology development efforts will focus on emerging
technologies and leverage existing technology resources to create a more secure environment. In
addition, new strategies can be developed to support cyber security activity across NNSA and
foster collaboration between organizations.
In FY 2012, activities will focus on the enhancement of cyber security capabilities in the areas of
incident management and disk encryptions. Funds will be used to implement risk mitigation
processes to provide for improvement in the cyber security architecture. Actions will be taken to
ensure these improvements are made which will include strengthening NNSA cyber security
architecture for NNSA Headquarters and sites. NNSA will baseline the cyber security controls for
confidentiality, integrity, and availability and will incorporate the certification and accreditation
process into the cyber security architecture life-cycle model. Additionally, NNSA will employ a
layered defense-in-depth cyber security model across the NNSA enterprise that will ensure
integrated and layered protections are implemented consistently across NNSA computing
environments.
