34 DCP-34 CSE5095 DCP: Global Command and Control System Common Picture Common Operational Picture

35 DCP-35 CSE5095 DCP: Critical Requirements  Difficult to Establish Roles  Requires Host Administrator  Not Separate Roles  No Time Controllable Access  Time Limits on Users  Time Limits on Resource Availability  Time Limits on Roles  No Value Constraints  Unlimited Common Operational Picture  Unlimited Access to Movement Information  Difficult to Federate Users and Resources  U.S. Only system  Private Network (Not Multi-Level Secure)

36 DCP-36 CSE5095 GCCS Shortfalls: User Roles  Currently, GCCS Users have Static Profile Based on Position/Supervisor/Clearance Level  Granularity Gives “Too Much Access”  Profile Changes are Difficult to Make - Changes Done by System Admin. Not Security Officer  What Can User Roles Offer to GCCS?  User Roles are Valuable Since They Allow Privileges to be Based on Responsibilities  Security Officer Controls Requirements  Support for Dynamic Changes in Privileges  Towards Least Privilege

37 DCP-37 CSE5095 Non-Military Crisis: User Roles  Emergent Crisis (Katrina) Requires a Response  Some Critical Issues  Who’s in Charge?  Who is Allowed to do What?  Who can Mobilize Governmental Resources?  Roles can Help:  Role for Crisis Commander  Roles for Crisis Participants  Roles Dictate Control over Resources  For Katrina: Lack of Leadership & Defined Roles  Army Corps of Engineers Only Allowed to Repair Levees – Not Upgrade and Change

38 DCP-38 CSE5095 GCCS Shortfalls: Time Controlled Access  Currently, in GCCS, User Profiles are Indefinite with Respect to Time  Longer than a Single Crisis  Difficult to Distinguish in Multiple Crises  No Time Controllable Access on Users or GCCS Resources  What can Time Constrained Access offer GCCS?  Junior Planners - Air Movements of Equipment Weeks before Deployment  Senior Planners - Adjustment in Air Movements Near and During Deployment  Similar Actions are Constrained by Time Based on Role

39 DCP-39 CSE5095 Non-Military Crisis: Time Controlled Access  Multiple Crisis Require Ability to Distinguish Between Roles Based on Time and Crisis  Occurrence of Rita (one Crisis) Impacted the Ongoing Crisis (Katrina)  Need to Manage Simultaneous Crisis w.r.t. Time  Different Roles Available at Different Times within Different Crises  Role Might be “Finishing” in one Crisis (e.g., First Response Role) and “Starting” in Another  Individual May Play Different Roles in Different Crisis  Individual May Play Same Role with Different Duration in Time w.r.t. its Activation

40 DCP-40 CSE5095 GCCS Shortfalls: Value Based Access  Currently, in GCCS, Controlled Access Based on Information Values Difficult to Achieve  Unlimited Viewing of Common Operational Picture (COP)  Unlimited Access to Movement Information  Attempts to Constrain would have to be Programmatic - which is Problematic!  What can Value-Based Access Offer to GCCS?  In COP  Constrain Display of Friendly and Enemy Positions  Limit Map Coordinates Displayed  Limit Tier of Display (Deployment, Weather, etc.)

41 DCP-41 CSE5095 Non-Military Crisis: Value Based Access  In Katrina/Rita, What People can See and Do May be Limited Based on Role  Katrina Responders Limited to Katrina Data  Rita Responders Limited to Rita Data  Some Responders (Army Corps Engineers) May Need Both to Coordinate Activities  Within Each Crisis, Information Also Limited  Some Katrina Roles (Commander, Emergency Responders, etc.) see All Data  Other Katrina Roles Limited (Security Deployment Plans Not Available to All  Again – Customization is Critical

42 DCP-42 CSE5095 GCCS Shortfalls: Federation Needs  Currently, GCCS is Difficult to Use for DCP  Difficult to Federate Users and Resources  U.S. Only system  Incompatibility in Joint and Common Contexts  Private Network (Not Multi-Level Secure)  What are Security/Federation Needs for GCCS?  Quick Admin. While Still Constraining US and Non-US Access  Employ Middleware for Flexibility/Robustness  Security Definition/Enforcement Framework  Extend GCCS for Coalition Compatibility that Respects Coalition and US Security Policies

43 DCP-43 CSE5095 Non-Military Crisis: Federation Needs  Crisis May Dictate Federation Capabilities  Katrina  Devastated Basic Communication at All Levels  There was No Need to Federate Computing Systems at Crisis Location with No Power, etc.  Rita  Crisis Known Well in Advance  However, Didn’t Prevent  Disorganized Evacuation  10+ Hour Highway Waits  Running out of Fuel  Federation Myst Coordinate Critical Resources

45 DCP-45 CSE5095 Information Sharing and Security Syntactic Considerations  Syntax is Structure and Format of the Information That is Needed to Support a Coalition  Incorrect Structure or Format Could Result in Simple Error Message to Catastrophic Event  For Sharing, Strict Formats Need to be Maintained  In US Military, Message Formats Include  Heading and Ending Section  United States Message Text Formats (USMTF)  128 Different Message Formats  Text Body of Actual Message  Problem: Formats Non-Standard Across Different Branches of Military and Countries

46 DCP-46 CSE5095 Information Sharing and Security Semantics Concerns  Semantics (Meaning and Interpretation)  USMTF - Different Format, Different Meaning  Each of 128 Messages has Semantic Interpretation  Communicate Logistical, Intelligence, and Operational Information  Semantic Problems  NATO and US - Different Message Formats  Different Interpretation of Values  Distances (Miles vs. Kilometers)  Grid Coordinates (Mils, Degrees)  Maps (Grid, True, and Magnetic North)

47 DCP-47 CSE5095 Information Sharing and Security Syntactic & Semantic Considerations  What’s Available to Support Information Sharing?  How do we Insure that Information can be Accurately and Precisely Exchanged?  How do we Associate Semantics with the Information to be Exchanged?  What Can we Do to Verify the Syntactic Exchange and that Semantics are Maintained?  Can Information Exchange Facilitate Federation?  How do we Deal with Exchange to/from Legacy Applications?  Can this be Handled Dynamically?  Or, Must we Statically Solve Information Sharing in Advance?

48 DCP-48 CSE5095 Information Sharing and Security Pragmatics Issues  Pragmatics Require that we Totally Understand Information Usage and Information Meaning  Key Questions Include:  What are the Critical Information Sources?  How will Information Flow Among Them?  What Systems Need Access to these Sources?  How will that Access be Delivered?  Who (People/Roles) will Need to See What When?  How will What a Person Sees Impact Other Sources?
