2.1: Security Incidents

Improve NASA’s capability to prevent, or to quickly and effectively respond to, any potential IT security incidents and centrally manage outcomes and the Agency’s response.

Other Information:

NASA will build on recent successes by enhancing and expanding the preventative enterprise security capabilities and monitoring systems, and ensure that systems and networks are capable of self-defense. Real-time federated situational awareness of our assets and the related threats and vulnerabilities will be realized, allowing early detection, warning, and as possible, prevention of potential security incidents. This proactive IT security strategy will be complemented by our sustained security efforts that include penetration testing, vulnerability scanning, patch management, and incident reporting to mitigate the growing spectrum of security threats.
