Department Of Defense SharePoint Architecture Guide (DSAG) Part 8 Shared Computing Infrastructure | ARB Security Solutions - SharePoint Security Solutions
Posted in SharePoint Architecture, SharePoint Security | 0 comments	There are a variety of rules and principles that have to be established so that the IT investment allows for a program that will have the best security available according to the DIEA 1.0 structure. The information assurance process must be designed and ready for operations. It all needs to work rapidly too so that there are changes that can be implemented without it harming the flow of the resources that are part of that configuration. Through the Department of Defense programs there is the demonstration of the network and the data it offers. The applications and setting have to be controlled so that the functions will all be enabled. They also have to be validated through the security system and engineering process. These programs also work to ensure that the changes necessary to the configuration of the network or applications can be automated in many areas. That helps to streamline the implementation of the GIG configuration process. The global mission and dispersement allows the global network to reach the right operations so that there is a line of defense for the information process.
The various Department of Defense series that are in place have to offer both sharing and transferring of the various information. It has to be able to span over many levels of security. They also have to be centralized when it comes to the planning and coordination of the various levels. Being able to digitally identify the different users and devices is important. They have to be authenticated so that the security can be enforced according to the controls and rules of quality that are in place. The protection of the organization has to be part of the controls of these devices.
Computing Infrastructure Readiness is referred to as CIR. For the Department of Defense the net centric vision requirements are so that it can all be trusted. The information is art of the enterprise asset and it is ready to be accessed with the various needs that have been identified. It is also ready for the unanticipated needs when new circumstances occur. That environment is one that is often dedicated for the hardware of a given application. The information has to be tied to that particular application within the operating system. The goal is for efficient utilization of the resources of the hardware and the software to be dynamic in terms of how it is used. The option for future growth needs to be there with a contingency plan in place. The department will move down the path for the net centric operations with that infrastructure serving as the underlying foundation. The core applications and services have to be part of it so that it won’t be just pieces of technology found here and there. With the net centric leverage in place the GIG will be responsible for distributing the resources for computing. As a result the users of the applications will have shared computing information and access to all of the data that has been stored as long as they are authorized as a user on that level.
The ideals of virtualization in terms of how the users will view the infrastructure is important. The Department of Defense has to reduce the technical and administrative barriers that pertain to shared resources. The goal is to offer a support of information that can be shared across the GIG. The evolution of the computing infrastructure helps to offer more support for the net centric operation. It has to look at the fact though that there are many users around the edges of the mission. They need to be able to take on the agile environment and its computations. This all has to be done so that users on the support end can adhere to various challenges including not enough bandwidth.
