2: Security
Enhance and strengthen IT Security and Cyber security to ensure the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of NASA’s
critical data and IT assets.
Other Information:
Environmental threats and vulnerabilities can change faster than our security posture. Some of these threats are well-resourced
and highly motivated, and the threats we face consist of varying levels of sophistication. The IT Security program is undergoing
a transformation that will efficiently provide enhanced protection of NASA’s information and information systems at a level
commensurate with our mission needs and information value. We plan to reduce the fragmented approach to IT security by continuing
to consolidate functions and services, such as through the centralized Security Operations Center, in order to achieve and
realize economies of scale. By developing and utilizing an enterprise security architecture, we will improve our decision-making
and risk management processes and increase visibility and responsiveness through enhanced information security monitoring
of NASA’s mission systems across the enterprise.
