Intense School’s DIACAP Boot Camp
Intense School is proud to present the DIACAP Boot Camp, a practical manager’s immersion into the Department of Defense Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (DIACAP).
On November 28, 2007 the Department of Defense (DoD) implemented the Department of Defense Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process that supersedes the DoD 8510.1M DITSCAP. The DIACAP ensures that risk management is applied to information systems (IS). DIACAP defines a DoD-wide formal and standard set of activities, general tasks, and a management structure process for the certification and accreditation (C&A) of a DoD IS that maintains the information assurance (IA) posture throughout the system's life cycle.
Our DIACAP Boot Camp is designed for security officials and their staffs, executives, program managers, and operations staff that are or will be involved with IT system DIACAP. The overarching purpose of this seminar is to provide the knowledge necessary to get the most cost-effective security solutions to meet an organization’s operational, policy, and security requirements.
Students will learn DIACAP processes, requirements, players (responsibilities, roles, motivations, and decision-making styles), and how to present and sell the results to gain necessary security resources. They will also learn why it is to their personal and professional advantage to do a DIACAP of their IT system.
In addition, this informative, non-technical boot camp will provide:
• Explanation of the requirement and directives
• Descriptions of DIACAP
• Identification of available guidelines
• Effective strategies for conducting efficient DIACAP Accreditations
• Knowledge to use the results to support organizational and personal objectives
Using their experience in conducting over 100 IT security assessments, our class instructors will augment the instruction with examples of real-world experience to help students quickly relate and apply the concepts and strategies to their environments.
