The National Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (NIACAP) is the minimum standard process for the certification and accreditation of computer and telecommunications systems that handle U.S. national security information. Which of the following participants are required in a NIACAP security assessment? Each correct answer represents a part of the solution. Choose all that apply.

Answer

Suggested Answer

The National Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (NIACAP) defines specific roles that are required to be involved in a security assessment. These participants include the Certification Agent, who provides technical expertise; the Designated Approving Authority (DAA), who assumes responsibility for operating the system; the IS Program Manager, who manages the Information Systems throughout their lifecycle; and the User Representative, who focuses on system availability, access, integrity, functionality, performance, and confidentiality. The role of the Information Assurance Manager is specific to the DIACAP process, not NIACAP. Therefore, the participants required in a NIACAP security assessment are the Certification Agent, Designated Approving Authority, IS Program Manager, and User Representative.

Suggested Answer

A Single Loss Expectancy (SLE) is the value in dollar ($) that is assigned to a single event. The SLE can be calculated by the following formula: SLE
= Asset Value ($) X Exposure Factor (EF) The Exposure Factor (EF) represents the % of assets loss caused by a threat. The EF is required to calculate the Single
Loss Expectancy (SLE). The Annualized Loss Expectancy (ALE) can be calculated by multiplying the Single Loss Expectancy (SLE) with the Annualized Rate of
Occurrence (ARO). Annualized Loss Expectancy (ALE) = Single Loss Expectancy (SLE) X Annualized Rate of Occurrence (ARO) Annualized Rate of Occurrence
(ARO) is a number that represents the estimated frequency in which a threat is expected to occur. It is calculated based upon the probability of the event occurring and the number of employees that could make that event occur. Exam CSSLP: Question 3 - Image 1
