Global Information Grid Information Assurance Capability/Technology RoadmapThis Global Information Grid (GIG) Information Assurance (IA) Capability/Technology Roadmap document, together with several other documents — including the GIG IA Reference Capability Document (RCD) — describe the IA component of the GIG. (U) The GIG IA Capability/Technology Roadmap identifies the technologies needed to implement the GIG IA Vision, and it provides a partial evaluation of current and in development technologies that can or will be able to support GIG needs.National Security AgencyNSA_225490bc-5b48-11e2-b575-0019c0a4baedInformation Assurance DirectorateOffice Secretary of DefenseThe Office Secretary of Defense/ Networks and Information Integration (OSD/NII) tasked the National Security Agency (NSA) to develop the Information Assurance (IA) component of the Global Information Grid (GIG)._225492e2-5b48-11e2-b575-0019c0a4baedTo identify the technologies needed to implement the GIG IA Vision_2254938c-5b48-11e2-b575-0019c0a4baedMethodologyEstablish, within the context of the GIG IA engineering process, an effective methodology to discover and examine relevant technologies for the purpose of providing guidance to GIG program decision makers and GIG research sponsors_22549418-5b48-11e2-b575-0019c0a4baed1_2254949a-5b48-11e2-b575-0019c0a4baedAssessmentProvide an assessment of the maturity and suitability of relevant IA technologies to meet GIG IA-required capabilities, focusing in particular on the 2008 milestones of the transition strategy outlined in the GIG IA RCD_2254951c-5b48-11e2-b575-0019c0a4baed2_225495a8-5b48-11e2-b575-0019c0a4baedStandards & Technologies Identify gaps in standards and technologies that will prevent attainment of GIG IA capabilities, and recommend specific actions to take in closing those gaps_22549634-5b48-11e2-b575-0019c0a4baed3_225496ca-5b48-11e2-b575-0019c0a4baedVisibility & FeedbackServe as a means for members of the GIG community and stake holders to gain visibility into the technology roadmap process and provide feedback on appropriate topics, such as standards or significant technologies overlooked during the study to date_22549760-5b48-11e2-b575-0019c0a4baed4_22549800-5b48-11e2-b575-0019c0a4baed2004-10-262013-01-10http://krebsonsecurity.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/GIG-IA-Capabilities.pdfOwenAmburOwen.Ambur@verizon.net
