| | | | [1] | Veterans Affairs (VA) users must ensure VA sensitive data is properly protected in compliance with all VA regulations. All instances of deployment using this technology should be reviewed by the local ISO (Information Security Officer) to ensure compliance with VA Handbook 6500. | | | [2] | This product is Class 2 or Class 3 VA-designed and built Local Software OR is a commercially-licensed software product purchased or leased that will run in a VA VISTA environment or integrate with Class 1 National VISTA Software. Presence of this software on the One-VA TRM does not equate to designation as a Class 1 National Software product and MUST NOT be assumed to comply with all VA programming standards, namespacing and interface control agreement standards, data management standards, documentation standards, information assurance standards, security standards and 508 compliance standards. As a Class 2 or Class 3 product, it MUST NOT be assumed to having been released into production through all OI&T product release and sustainment process controls for project management; requirements, development and testing management; and configuration, change, and release management necessary to satisfy OI&T process and product compliance. The OI&T Enterprise Program Management Office does not endorse nor support Class 2 and Class 3 products and does not support data usage or application programmer interfaces (APIs) between Class 1 National Software products and Class 2 or Class 3 products. Class 2 or Class 3 products must restrict their interfaces to Class 1 National Software to use of publicly-supported APIs ONLY. VA Directive 6402, Modifications to Standardized National Software, dictates the policy for Class 2 and Class 3 products and modifications to Class 1 National Software products. Local enhancements to, or modifications of, Class 1 Protected National Software (as listed in the Directive), in part or in whole, is PROHIBITED. Local enhancements to, or modifications of, Non-Protected Class 1 National Software is allowed ONLY with an approved waiver by the Software Modification Waiver Committee (SMWC). Class 2 and Class 3 software that does not modify the Class 1 National Software in any way must still adhere to namespacing and interface control agreement standards as well as National Field Operations Processes. | | | [3] | This technology should only be used when required by a Veterans Affairs (VA) business partner for an approved VA Project. Use of this technology must comply with ESCCB requirements which include: Signed Interconnection Agreements/Memorandum of Understanding agreements (MOU/ISA) with each external business partner, compliance with VA Handbook 6500, and must implement appropriate National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) requirements for all devices interacting with this technology. All instances of deployment using this technology should be reviewed by the local ISO (Information Security Officer) to ensure compliance with VA Handbook 6500 and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) standards and an ISO Risk Based Decision (RBD) must be approved by the local ISO/CIO before it can be used in the VA Production Environment. In cases where the technology is used for external connections, a full Enterprise Security Change Control Board (ESCCB) review is required in accordance VA Directive 6004, VA Directive 6517
and VA Directive 6513. The local ISO can advise on the ESCCB review process and ensure privacy of information compliance protections are in place. | | | [4] | This product is a Class 1 VA OI&T designed and built software product that MUST ALSO comply with all VA programming standards, interfacing standards, data management standards, documentation standards, information assurance standards, security standards and 508 compliance standards. The product`s release MUST ALSO comply with all OI&T product release and sustainment process controls for project management; requirements, development and testing management; and configuration, change, and release management necessary to satisfy OI&T process and product compliance. Satisfaction of both standards and process compliance requirements, along with formal product registration by the OI&T Enterprise Program Management Office, provides a Class 1 designation by OI&T as an OI&T-managed and supported VA-created product. | | | [5] | Technology must remain patched and operated in accordance with Federal and Department security policies and guidelines in order to mitigate known and future security vulnerabilities. | | | [6] | Per the May 5th, 2015 memorandum from the VA Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) FIPS 140-2 Validate Full Disk Encryption (FOE) for Data at Rest in Database Management Systems (DBMS) and in accordance with Federal requirements and VA policy, database management must use Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 compliant encryption to protect the confidentiality and integrity of VA information at rest at the application level. If FIPS 140-2 encryption at the application level is not technically possible, FIPS 140-2 compliant full disk encryption (FOE) must be implemented on the hard drive where the DBMS resides. Appropriate access enforcement and physical security control must also be implemented. All instances of deployment using this technology should be reviewed to ensure compliance with VA Handbook 6500 and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) standards. It is the responsibility of the system owner to work with the local CIO (or designee) and Information Security Officer (ISO) to ensure that a compliant DBMS technology is selected and that if needed, mitigating controls are in place and documented in a System Security Plan (SSP). | | | [7] | Veterans Affairs (VA) users must ensure VA sensitive data is properly protected in compliance with all VA regulations.
