Purpose

• Review and approve all Med-COI network infrastructure design & architectural changes & associated

infrastructure procurements

• Changes are triggered by engineering requests (ERs) associated with new requirements submitted by

the user community or internal DHA engineering groups

Structure

• Engineering Review Board (ERB)

• Performs initial review of all ERs and acts on those that are valid and actionable

• Forwards proposed ER designs requiring changes to the approved architectures and/or allocation of funds for review and approval

• Architecture Review Board (ARB)

• Reviews and acts (approve/disapprove) on ERs involving architectural changes or new spending

DHA Medical Enclave Security Automation Solution; Major Component Integration

Palo Alto Networks Proprietary and Confidential 21

The ARMIS Collector (1

per site) observes data as it passes through the network at key traffic points. It also leverages SNMP and SSH communications with access-layer devices such as wireless LAN controllers and network switches. Metadata from these flows is shared with the Analytics Engine for deeper analysis

The ARMIS Analytics

Engine and Knowledge

Database (AEKDB) uses

data from the Collectors

to perform device identification, profiling, baselining, persistent behavioral anomaly, and threat detection. The AEKDB may be cloud-based or implemented as

a stand alone server. The AEKDB uses proprietary algorithms and machine learning to refine its ability to ID devices and assess their behavior. The DHA will leverage Amazon Gov Cloud for its enterprise instance of AEKDB.

Cisco Identity Service

Engine (ISE) is the

DHA’s selected Network Access Control (NAC) and AAA solution, and provides the baseline network visibility and policy-driven access management for devices and users throughout the enterprise. ISE provides the dynamic controls necessary to ensure only

the right people and trusted devices get the appropriate level of access regardless of where or how they attempt to connect

PxGrid is an optional

capability that's built into Cisco ISE. PxGridoperates as an information exchange hub where multiple security platforms can read and submit contextual data. This facilitates the sharing of security intelligence among

security technologies/vendors which enables an ecosystem of dissimilar IETF standards-compliant technologies to work

in-tandem leveraging a single open API.

The PaloAlto Next

Generation Firewall

(NGFW) supports Dynamic

Access Groups (DAGs). DAGs

allow on-the-fly creation of

policies for specific endpoints.

A DAG uses "tags" to

determine its members. Tags

are defined through ISE policy

SGT assignment that is

Published to PxGrid. Panorama

subscribes to this information

and dynamically updates the

device IP and associated tags,

and updates membership

information for the DAG(s),

resulting in implementation of

appropriate policy

• Device connects to the network.• Switchports/WLC/VPN configured to process 802.1x.

• MAB devices use Local Identity Store.• Devices using supplicants/agent software use External Identity Stores (Enterprise Identity Services).• Performs additional AD/PKI authentication for both device and/or user credentials

• Network equipment will first try to authenticate using 802.1x. If 802.1x is not detected, MAC Address (MAB) is used.

• ISE performs posturing and compliance checks after device is authenticated.

• ISE queries pxGrid for updated profiling and compliance information from McAfee, Tanium, and Armis.

• ISE queries SCCM for device SCCM management status and compliance. Retrieves status and # days since last check.

• ISE, through TC-NAC Service, queries ACAS for vulnerability information and time since last scan. If scan is not compliant or out-of-date, can initiate either an un-credentialed, or using a local agent a credentialed scan from ACAS.

• If compliant (enforced by policy in ISE), ISE sends ‘Access-Accept’ with assigned VLAN to access device.• If not compliant, ISE sends message to access device and places endpoint in remediation VLAN/shuts down port.• If device is not authorized, ISE sends a RADIUS ‘Access-Reject’ message and port, placing device in the “Restricted”

VLAN or applies a restricted ACL on the access device interface/WLC.

• ISE updates endpoint information in pxGrid for Palo Alto DAG. Panorama pushes updates to firewalls to allow/restrict endpoint access.

DevSecOps Operational View (OV-1)

“DevSecOps is an organizational software engineering culture and practice that aims at

unifying software development (Dev), security (Sec) and operations (Ops). The main characteristic of DevSecOps is to improve customer outcomes and mission value by automating, monitoring, and applying security at all phases of the software lifecycle:

plan, develop, build, test, release, deliver, deploy, operate, and monitor.” – DoD Enterprise DevSecOps Reference Design

Keeping it Boring in 2022, what’s next?

• Continuing work on continuous monitoring and beginning the migration to 'continuous authorization'

• Pushing hard on standardization of software and tools, driving down the amount of variation in the field

• Decommissioning legacy systems services and the associated hardware and software platforms

• Look hard at optimization of storage platforms and an overall reduction in the footprint ($)

• Add metrics and additional measurements of performance to drive toward desired outcomes and

"shine the light on the ugly"

• Introduce increasing automation into maintenance and configuration tasks to reduce operating costs
