The McCumber Cube is a model for establishing and evaluating information security (information assurance) programs. This security model, created in 1991 by John McCumber, is depicted as a three-dimensional Rubik's Cube-like grid. The concept of this model is that, in developing information assurance systems, organizations must consider the ...
Information assurance (IA) is the practice of assuring information and managing risks related to the use, processing, storage, and transmission of information. Information assurance includes protection of the integrity , availability, authenticity, non-repudiation and confidentiality of user data. [ 1 ]
A Protection Profile (PP) is a document used as part of the certification process according to ISO/IEC 15408 and the Common Criteria (CC). As the generic form of a Security Target (ST), it is typically created by a user or user community and provides an implementation independent specification of information assurance security requirements.
Samuel Standfield Wagstaff Jr. (born 21 February 1945) is an American mathematician and computer scientist, whose research interests are in the areas of cryptography, parallel computation, and analysis of algorithms, especially number theoretic algorithms.
The institute developed the IISP Skills Framework. This framework describes the range of competencies that information security and information assurance professionals expect to perform their roles effectively. It was developed through collaboration between private and public sector organizations, world-renowned academics, and security leaders ...

DIACAP differed from DITSCAP in several ways—in particular, in its embrace of the idea of information assurance controls (defined in DoDD 8500.1 and DoDI 8500.2) as the primary set of security requirements for all automated information systems (AISs).
Multiple Independent Levels of Security/Safety (MILS) is a high-assurance security architecture based on the concepts of separation [1] and controlled information flow. It is implemented by separation mechanisms that support both untrusted and trustworthy components; ensuring that the total security solution is non-bypassable, evaluatable, always invoked, and tamperproof.
