Information Assurance (IA)

When transmitting sensitive information, insist on the assurance that your communications network has not been compromised by an intruder. TCS’ Information Assurance (IA) suite of services manages the risk associated with data transmission, and provides the peace of mind needed when sending and receiving critical communications.

Information Assurance (IA) services provide Information Systems Security Lifecycle Management; Vulnerability Assessment and Evaluation; and Certification & Accreditation Service for DIACAP or NIACAP. Together these services ensure that all communication transmission modes in systems and enterprises are able to maintain operational integrity.

TCS Information Assurance services are superior at providing the technical and administrative controls designed to enforce confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data on information systems. 

Information Systems Security Lifecycle Management (ISSLM)

TCS manages systems through the entire lifecycle with our proven methodology using the following techniques to provide Information Assurance support:

• ISSE (Information Systems Security Engineering)
• Systems Implementation (TCS III Step Implementation Process)
• Certification and Accreditation Activities for DIACAP/NIACAP support
• SDIM (Security Documentation Implementation and Maintenance Process)  

Vulnerability Assessment and Evaluation 

The TCS Vulnerability Assessment Team (TVAT) provides Information Security (INFOSEC) Assessments, INFOSEC Evaluations, Penetration Testing, and/or Remediation through processes derived directly from the National Security Agency’s Information Assessment Methodology / Information Evaluation Methodology (IAM/IEM) guidance.

Certification & Accreditation Services

C&A Services are provided by TCS for DIACAP and NIACAP to enable Federal Government Agencies such as the Department of Defense to meet FISMA (Federal Information Security Management Act) Requirements. Our process also aids in the transition from DITSCAP to DIACAP.
