5 1 DMS/DII Guard Product Releases The objective of this document is to describe the planned evolution of the Wang DMS/DII Guard. This evolution includes both hardware and software product capabilities. 1.1 DMS Guard Release The Wang DMS Guard Release provides guard services that are compliant with requirements of DMS 2.0. This release offers DMS users and organizations comprehensive messaging and directory security services using the following major functional capabilities:.400 Mail Guard - Provides automatic, secure, reliable, and accountable bidirectional transfer of.400 messages between DMS users and organizations. This includes.400 P1 protocol support, simple authentication, and MSP Directory Services Guard - Provides transparent access to the.500 Directory Services. Allows users and processes to query and retrieve user information such as addresses using DAP and DSP. Support for directory information shadowing is not provided in Release FORTEZZA Technology - Provides private signature and encryption keys and implements the MISSI Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA), Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-1), Key Encryption Algorithm (KEA), and SKIPJACK Encryption Algorithm. Release of the Wang DMS/DII Guard was delivered on schedule to DMS June DII Guard Release The delivery of the Wang DII Guard Release is an incremental improvement over the system delivered as the DMS Guard. The Wang DII Guard Release maintains the essential features of the DMS Guard and adds functionality required supporting the planned DMS 2.0A release. The distinguishing features of the Wang DII Guard Release 2.2 is the inclusion of support for directory information shadowing,.400 Dirty Word Search (DWS)/Clean Word List (CWL), filtering of using the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), and filtering of MIME encoded attachments. Release of the Wang DMS/DII Guard is the current Guard release and is available upon request. 5 December 9, 1998

6 1.3 DII Guard Release The delivery of the Wang DII Guard Release 2.3 is an incremental improvement over the Wang DMS/DII Guard Release The Wang DII Guard 2.3 release maintains the essential features of Release 2.2.1, supports DMS 2.0B release, ACP 120 (MSP 4.02B),.500 Strong Authentication and Signed Operations with the DMS DCL DSA; and enhances system performance through the use of a more powerful 333 Pentium II processor, multiple disk drive support, and multiple FORTEZZA cards per flow. Release 2.3 of the DII Guard is scheduled for April Product and Platform Summary The following table, Table 2-1, summarizes the product features and platform baseline for each of the DMS/DII Wang Guard releases. A detailed breakdown of the features added to each release can be found in Section 3. 6 December 9, 1998

9 2 Guard Acquisition and Installation The basic plan for Guard acquisition and installation is to follow the DMS schedule. As new capabilities are incorporated into the DMS structure, the acquisition office will solicit proposals to implement these features into the Guard. 2.1 Organizations and General Responsibilities Acquisition Office The acquisition office is responsible for providing the management of the resources necessary to ensure that the Wang Guard is built and operationally successful. The Acquisition office for the Wang Guard is NSA/31/Maryland Procurement Office, Ft. George G. Meade, MD Product Approval Authority The National Security Agency/31 Organization has the responsibility to serve as the Product Approval Authority for the Wang Guard. The Product Approval Authority is responsible for the technical evaluation of the Wang Guard. The Product Approval Authority s responsibilities are to: Conduct product test and evaluation of the Wang Guard; Provide guidance and expertise in the area of security evaluation and certification to enable the DISA and site accreditation authorities to properly conduct accreditation of the Wang Guard for operation; DISA Accreditation Authority The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) DMS Program Office is responsible for serving as the overall accreditation authority for the system. DISA will make the final determination, in coordination with the site accreditation authority for granting or denying approval to operate the Wang Guard Site Accreditation Authority The site accreditation authority for the Wang Guard is responsible for the site-specific and operational considerations of the approval to operate decision. The site accreditation authority works with the DISA accreditation authority in the initial and final accreditation decisions to determine if the Wang Guard will be able to operate with an acceptable level of risk. It is each site s responsibility to form their own Security Test and Evaluation team. The ST&E team will plan, execute, and report on the site ST&E activities for the Wang Guard. 9 December 9, 1998

10 2.1.5 NSA Guard Program Management Office The National Security Agency/31 Organization has the responsibility to review and approve all plans, to observe, or (at their option) conduct tests for the Wang Guard. It is the Government s responsibility to conduct all security tests and other assurance activities Wang Government Services, Inc. Wang Government Services, Inc., hereafter referred to as Wang, is the prime contractor, and has primary responsibility for the development and testing of the Wang Guard, and to ensure it meets the requirements identified by the Government. The Wang development team performs module or unit and Computer Software Configuration Item integration testing. Wang is responsible for developing the acceptance and operational test plans and procedures, for performing the system, acceptance, and operational testing, and for writing the resulting test reports as required. Wang also supports the Government assurance activities, by providing materials, explanations, attendance at technical meetings, and on-site support as directed by the Government. 2.2 TS-300 Platform Evaluation The NSA supports the creation of secure computer products in varying stages of development from initial design to those that are commercially available. The Department of Defense (DoD) Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria (TCSEC) establishes specific requirements that a computer system must meet in order to achieve a predefined level of trustworthiness. To determine the division and class at which all requirements are meet by a system, the system must be evaluated against the TCSEC by a NSA, Trusted Product and Network Security Evaluation Team. After completion December 9, 1998

11 2.3 Deployment Deployment of the Guard is done through coordination with NSA and the responsible site personnel. It is intended that the user sites would have the option of conducting their own Guard installation with appropriately trained personnel or would be able to make use of the site survey and installation services available through NSA. The responsible site personnel will contact NSA first in order to be placed into the Guard deployment schedule. At this point, a site survey will be conducted by a member of the installation team. If the site is not ready to receive a Guard, they will be provided with information necessary to prepare for installation and will take the steps required for the installation of a Guard. At this point the site personnel and installation team will coordinate their efforts and schedule a date for the installation of a Guard. The installation will include verification of proper operation, user training, and the establishment of a contact point and procedures for follow-on support. 2.4 Product Training Wang offers a course of instruction for the Wang DMS/DII Guard. This course supports the integration of the Wang DMS/DII Guard into the user environment and prepares users for subsequent operation of the Wang DMS/DII Guard. Course of instruction covers the following topics: Theory of operation of the Wang DMS/DII Guard; Connection of the Wang DMS/DII Guard to networks; Wang DMS/DII Guard start-up and initialization procedures; Wang DMS/DII Guard system administration procedures; Wang DMS/DII Guard security administration procedures; Wang DMS/DII Guard application administration procedures; Wang DMS/DII Guard preventive maintenance. Wang offers this course at either Wang s Herndon VA. Training facilities or at a customer specified location. Each session will be presented to a maximum of twelve (12) students. 11 December 9, 1998
