PITAC

PITAC Cyber Security Report
"In Cyber Security: A Crisis of Prioritization, the February 2005 PITAC report to the President, the independent Presidential advisory panel warns that the Nation’s IT infrastructure is highly vulnerable to attacks that could damage not only the economy but national defense and national security systems as well. Noting that “market forces direct privatesector investment away from research and toward the application of existing technologies to develop marketable products,” the report calls on the Federal government to fundamentally improve its approach to cyber security R&D by increasing investments in unclassified cyber security R&D; intensifying its efforts to expand the size of today’s small cyber security research community; improving technology transfer to the private sector; and increasing the focus and efficiency of Federal R&D through better coordination and oversight. The report lists 10 areas as R&D priorities, based on a PITAC analysis of more than 30 documents and reports on cyber security R&D. The report concludes that the Nation will not be able to secure its IT infrastructure without significant advances in the following areas:
❖ Authentication technologies
❖ Secure fundamental protocols
❖ Secure software engineering and software
assurance
❖ Holistic system security
❖ Monitoring and detection
Mitigation and recovery methodologies
❖ Cyber forensics
❖ Modeling and testbeds for new technologies
❖ Metrics, benchmarks, and best practices
❖ Non-technology issues that can compromise

Requests for Comment

White House Draft National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace

Comments can be submitted for 60 days (reportedly Nov 18 ) to feedback@who.eop.gov.

The February 2003 National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace calls for Federal R&D leadership in certain circumstances, such as to address an
increasing number of vulnerabilities and to provide continuity of government. In the latter situation, the document states, the role of the Federal government is to ensure the safety of its cyber infrastructure and those assets required for essential missions and services. Cyber security R&D areas that support this goal include: forensics and attack attribution; protection of systems, networks, and information critical to national security; indications and warnings; and protection against organized attacks capable of inflicting debilitating damage to the economy. - Federal Plan for Cyber Security and Information Assurance: Research and Development, NSTC p. 14 (April 2006)
