Zero Trust (ZT) potentially transforms DoD Cybersecurity. ZT is a cybersecurity strategy wherein security policy is applied based on context established through least-privileged access controls and strict user authentication—not assumed trust.
SP 800-160 Volume 1 Engineering Trustworthy Secure Systems describes a basis for establishing principles, concepts, activities, and tasks for engineering trustworthy secure systems. The intent is to advance systems engineering in developing trustworthy systems for contested operational environments.
Come join Ron Ross who will provide an overview of how to use the SP 800-160, Volume 1, SSE design concepts and principles as part of a life cycle process to develop systems that are trustworthy, secure, and resilient. The engineering-based approach to cybersecurity can produce the quality and quantity of assurance evidence to facilitate credible, risk-based authorization decisions by authorizing officials, and ultimately lead to better protection for critical DOD systems.
