Abstract

ArcGIS in a Cybersecurity Environment
Track: Defense & Intelligence
Authors: Ronald Moore, R Carr

This paper presents the processes and tools, successes and challenges in the installation and maintenance of ArcGIS in a U.S. DoD Risk Management Framework (RMF) cybersecurity-enabled computing environment (CE). RMF provides security controls within the enterprise CE and a framework to assess the security posture of the CE. These controls provide guidelines that can be used by all ArcGIS users to ensure their systems and data are protected from malicious activities, even if RMF is not required.
