Description
Understanding and meeting the
requirements presented by the complex set of existing information
assurance standards, law, and policy is a daunting challenge to
everyone involved in timely and secure delivery of information. To
reduce this challenge, new information assurance standards being
developed by the IEEE will be crafted to fit into this existing
environment. The review of standards project selection and strategy
offered by this workshop supports this goal and provides a means to
identify unmet needs for new information standards.
This day-and-a-half
workshop therefore introduces current IEEE information assurance
standards projects and solicits volunteer participation in a consensus
process to produce preeminent international information standards.
Projects introduced at this workshop include those recently approved
for work on both baseline operating system security (BOSS™) and
certification and accreditation (C&A) of information systems, each
project being initially based on NIST-developed drafts. In addition,
an ongoing project to develop a standard
architecture for encrypted shared storage media is reviewed.
And projects slated to begin later this year, dealing with security of
peripherals and information assurance terminology, are discussed.
The IEEE
will begin working group meetings early in 2004 on standards for
C&A and BOSS™, and selection of dates and locations for these
workshops will be determined during this workshop.

Directions
The Reception will be held at the Holiday Inn Gaithersburg,
and the Plenary Session at the Green Auditorium in the Administration
Building at NIST.
Below are maps of the hotel and NIST, as well as driving directions
to the hotel and to NIST.
Keep in mind that NIST has a north campus and a south (main)
campus. The Green Auditorium/Administration building is on the South
Campus with entry via Bureau Drive off of W. Diamond Avenue (Rt 117).
Here is a Yahoo-provided map of the Holiday
Inn, Gaithersburg, located at 2 Montgomery Village Drive, and it also
shows Bureau Drive from which to enter the NIST main (south) campus:
