As the operational hub for the DIB Cybersecurity Program, DCISE assists DIB companies to safeguard DoD content and intellectual property residing on or transiting their unclassified networks. DCISE develops and shares actionable threat products, and performs cyber analysis, diagnostics, and remediation consults for DIB Partners.
DCISE is the reporting and analysis center for the implementation of the statutory requirement in Section 941 of the FY2013 National Defense Authorization Act for reporting cyber incidents by Cleared Defense Contractors (CDCs), and the related amendment of the Defense Federal Acquisitions Regulations (DFARS), known as "Safeguarding DFARS."
DCISE has been appraised at a Maturity Level 3 rating by Carnegie Mellon's Capability Maturity Model Integration for Services.
DCISE personnel are available to meet with industry partners and government stakeholders to share insight on handling intrusion-related activity.
DIB partners and DCISE analysts have unclassified discussions on adversary techniques and targeted networks.
DIBNet is the DoD's network for on-line incident reporting and access to DCISE threat products.
Private DIB Analyst-to-Analyst (A2A) meetings are hosted by DCISE at DC3. These meetings are partner-driven to discuss tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by advanced persistant threat (APT) actors targeting networks of that specific DIB Partner. Local on-site A2As can be arranged in special circumstances.
DCISE cyber threat products assist government and industry partners in strengthening security and protecting controlled unclassified information on DIB computer networks. DCISE products, advisories, and administrative notifications are disseminated to USG Stakeholders and DIB Partners.
