BUSINESS, TECHNICAL, LEGAL, PRIVACY. 1 0 NATIONAL STRATEGIES FOR TRUSTED IDENTITIES IN CYBER SPACE ("NSTIC") - TODAY, WEAK USERNAME AND PASSWORD COMBINATIONS ARE USED BY THOUSANDS OF SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED BUSINESSES ("SMBS") AS WELL AS ONLINE USERS IN THE FINANCIAL SECTOR WHO ENGAGE IN OVER 3 BILLION ONLINE TRADING TRANSACTIONS ANNUALLY, WITH A VALUE ESTIMATED AT MORE THAN ONE QUADRILLION. TO PROTECT ONLINE TRANSACTIONS, INDUSTRY IS MOVING TOWARDS THE USE OF TRUSTED IDENTITY CREDENTIALS. HOWEVER, THERE IS A LACK OF UNDERSTANDING AND GUIDANCE REGARDING HOW TO STRUCTURE THE NECESSARY IDENTITY TRUST FRAMEWORKS AND HOW TO ADDRESS THE CRITICAL LIABILITY AND PRIVACY ISSUES THEY RAISE. MOREOVER, EXISTING IDENTITY TRUST FRAMEWORKS OPERATE IN SILOS, ARE INCONSISTENTLY STRUCTURED, ARE NOT INTEROPERABLE, AND OFTEN DO NOT FOLLOW ALL NSTIC GUIDING PRINCIPLES, MEANING THEY ARE NOT EASY TO USE, VOLUNTARY, NOR INEXPENSIVE. THE END RESULT IS INCREASED FRAUD AND ABUSE, COST AND INEFFICIENCY ALONG WITH ENHANCED SUSCEPTIBILITY TO CYBER THREATS. INDUSTRY AND GOVERNMENT ALIKE RECOGNIZE THAT A ROBUST AND TESTED TRUST FRAMEWORK IS REQUIRED TO ADDRESS THESE DEFICIENCIES WHILE REDUCING THE BARRIERS OF ENTRY FOR CITIZENS, BUSINESSES, AND GOVERNMENTS.TSCP UNDER THE NSTIC GRANT HAS PARTNERED WITH ITS MEMBERS, SMBS, AND WITH FINANCIAL SERVICES COMPANIES TO COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING: (1) DEVELOP AN OPEN SOURCE, TECHNOLOGY-NEUTRAL TRUST FRAMEWORK DEVELOPMENT GUIDANCE ("TFDG") DOCUMENT THAT CAN PROVIDE A STANDARD FOR CONSISTENT TRUST FRAMEWORK DEVELOPMENT; (2) STRESS TEST THE TFDG IN A PROOF-OF-CONCEPT ("POC"); (3) UPDATE THE TFDG WITH POC RESULTS THAT COULD BE IMPLEMENTED IN THE TSCP-NSTIC TEAM'S PILOT ENVIRONMENTS; AND (4) PROVIDE A PRODUCTION-READY TFDG FOR DEVELOPING AND OPERATING NEW TRUST FRAMEWORKS OR UPDATING EXISTING ONES. THE TFDG CAN ALSO SERVE AS A FOUNDATION DOCUMENT FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NSTIC ECOSYSTEM FRAMEWORK AND FOR FUTURE LEGAL AND REGULATORY DEVELOPMENT.TSCP HAS GRADUATED FROM ITS SECOND-YEAR NSTIC FUNDING AND OFFERS AN OPERATIONAL TRUST FRAMEWORK TO ITS MEMBERS. TSCP ACCOMPLISHED FOUR PRIMARY GOALS:GOAL 1) INCREASE IN USAGE OF SECURE CREDENTIALS FOR COMMERCIAL INTERNET TRANSACTIONS. THROUGH THE TSCP PILOTS, TSCP IS LEVERAGING THE EXISTING DEPLOYMENT BASE OF SECURE PERSONAL IDENTIFY VERIFICATION ("PIV") CREDENTIALS ISSUED TO MEMBER COMPANY AND ORGANIZATION EMPLOYEES FOR BUSINESS APPLICATIONS ACROSS KEY MARKET SECTORS THAT INCLUDE AEROSPACE AND DEFENSE, CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE, RETAIL, AND FINANCIAL SERVICES SECTORS. TODAY, FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS HAVE CONTINUED TO EMPLOY USER NAME AND PASSWORD FOR CUSTOMER LOG IN, THUS FACILITATING AND ENABLING THE USAGE OF PIV CREDENTIALS FOR COMMERCIAL AUTHENTICATION, SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES THE SECURITY OF THESE INTERNET TRANSACTIONS. GOAL 2) EXPANSION OF A COMMUNITY TRUST FRAMEWORK TO ENCOMPASS OTHER COMMUNITIES WITHIN THE IDENTITY ECOSYSTEM. AS WITH ALL TRUST FRAMEWORKS WITHIN THE IDENTITY ECOSYSTEM, TSCP'S ORIGINAL TRUST FRAMEWORK ADDRESSED THE AEROSPACE AND DEFENSE INDUSTRY ONLY. IN THE SPIRIT OF ACHIEVING TRUE CROSS-SECTOR FEDERATION, TSCP'S TRUST FRAMEWORK IS BEING "HARMONIZED" TO ACCOMMODATE FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS AND CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE PARTICIPANTS, AND THEIR REQUIREMENTS; THEREBY, ESTABLISHING CROSS-FEDERATION BETWEEN THE AEROSPACE AND DEFENSE AND ADJACENT MARKETS. GOAL 3) ENABLEMENT OF OPERATIONAL FEDERATION THROUGH A COMMONLY DEVELOPED AND ACCEPTED MULTI-LATERAL AGREEMENT MODEL. TSCP HAS DEVELOPED AND VETTED A MULTI-LATERAL FEDERATION AGREEMENT THAT ENABLES ITS FEDERATION PARTICIPANTS TO EXECUTE A STANDARD AGREEMENT WITH TSCP AS OPPOSED TO EXECUTING MULTIPLE, AND POTENTIALLY VARIABLE, BI-LATERAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN OVERLAPPING SETS OF MEMBERS. THE TRUST FRAMEWORK INCLUDES A DISTRIBUTED LIABILITY AMONGST ALL THE ECOSYSTEM PARTICIPANTS THAT INCLUDE RELYING PARTIES, IDENTITY PROVIDERS, CREDENTIAL PROVIDERS, ATTRIBUTE PROVIDERS, IDENTITY EXCHANGES AND OTHER POLICY BRIDGES.GOAL 4) UNIFICATION OF PUBLIC KEY INFRASTRUCTURE ("PKI") AND NON-PKI TRUST FRAMEWORK. TSCP HAS MERGED THE FRAMEWORK, RULES AND PROCESSES ASSOCIATED WITH PKI AND NON-PKI CREDENTIALS AND AUTHENTICATION UNDER A SINGLE POLICY AUTHORITY. THIS STREAMLINING EXERCISE HAS SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED PROCESS FRAGMENTATION, DUPLICATION, AS WELL AS BRIDGE OPERATING COSTS. DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY - EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT CLOUD SERVICE - TSCP'S PRIMARY FOCUS IS TO APPLY ITS INFORMATION LABELING AND HANDLING SPECIFICATIONS TO THE CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE TO TEST SECURE COLLABORATION FOR THE TRANSMISSION OF DATA. SPECIFICALLY, TSCP'S PILOT PROGRAM WILL TEST THE MANAGEMENT OF RIGHTS AND AUTHORITIES IN SUPPORT OF SECURING DATA THAT IS BEING TRANSPORTED WITHIN AND ACROSS FIRST RESPONDER SYSTEMS. TODAY, KEY INFORMATION IS NOT SHARED BETWEEN KEY RESPONSE PERSONNEL OF THE PRIVATE SECTOR, THE FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL DECISION MAKERS, AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT OFFICIALS INVOLVED WITH ACCESSING CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND KEY RESOURCES BECAUSE OF A "LACK OF TRUST". PREVIOUSLY, THERE WAS NO ADEQUATE MECHANISM IN PLACE THAT COULD RESTRICT WHO WAS RECEIVING SPECIFIC PIECES OF INFORMATION BETWEEN THE PRIVATE SECTOR AND THE PUBLIC SECTOR; AND THEREFORE, A POTENTIAL THREAT EXISTED FOR THIS INFORMATION TO CAUSE DAMAGE IF RECEIVED IN THE WRONG HANDS. TSCP'S PILOT PROGRAM ESTABLISHED AND DEMONSTRATED SCENARIO-BASED COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE PRIVATE SECTOR CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND PUBLIC SAFETY RESPONDERS. DURING THE COURSE OF THE PROJECT, TSCP DEVELOPED A SECURE AND ROBUST ENVIRONMENT, WHERE DATA SOURCE PROVIDERS (E.G., POWER COMPANIES, FLEET COMPANIES, ETC.) HAVE THE CONFIDENCE THAT ANY PRIVATE SECTOR SENSITIVE DATA ENTERED INTO THE SYSTEM WILL BE SHARED AND ACCESSIBLE ONLY BY AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL. INTEGRATING THE NECESSARY DATA PROTECTION TECHNOLOGY INTO THIS ENVIRONMENT WILL SIGNIFICANTLY ADVANCE THE EVOLUTION OF IDENTITY MANAGEMENT. TSCP'S OPERATIONAL PILOTS DEMONSTRATED A SECURE COLLABORATION SOLUTION PROVIDING THE BENEFITS OF EASY ACCESS TO INFORMATION FOR THE END USER, SECURE HANDLING OF SENSITIVE DATA, SECURE ACCESS TO INFORMATION ON A NEED-TO-KNOW BASIS, AND STRONG IDENTITY ASSURANCE OF THE END USER. MEMBER SERVICES - TSCP IS A COOPERATIVE FORUM THAT INCLUDES LEADING IT SYSTEM INTEGRATORS, AEROSPACE AND DEFENSE, CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE, FINANCIAL AND RETAIL, AND KEY GOVERNMENT ENTITIES AND THEIR ALLIES AND COALITION PARTNERS. THESE MEMBERS WORK TOGETHER TO ESTABLISH AND MAINTAIN AN OPEN STANDARDS-BASED FRAMEWORK THAT CAN BE USED TO ENABLE SECURE COLLABORATION AND ASSURED INFORMATION SHARING BETWEEN PARTIES THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT OF SPECIFICATIONS AND THE ENABLEMENT OF SOLUTIONS AND SERVICES.TSCP'S FEDERATED TRUST FRAMEWORK ENABLES ITS MEMBERS TO HAVE SECURE ACCESS TO EACH OTHER'S SENSITIVE DATA BY CREATING A COLLABORATIVE ENVIRONMENT BASED ON SCALABLE AND EFFICIENT TRUST MECHANISMS. TSCP IS THE ONLY GOVERNMENT AND INDUSTRY PARTNERSHIP THAT HAS CREATED AN OPERATIONAL TRUST FRAMEWORK FOR SECURE ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION AND SHARING OF SENSITIVE INFORMATION INTERNATIONALLY. 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 X 0 0 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 3 3 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 DE VA X KEITH WARD 7037607898 8000 TOWERS CRESCENT DRIVE STE 1350 VIENNA VA 22182 GREG ROECKER CHAIRMAN 8.00 X X 0 0 0 PHILIPPE LAFLANDRE VICE-CHAIR, SECRETARY/TREASURER 8.00 X X 0 0 0 MICHAEL PAPAY BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 KEITH WARD PRESIDENT & CEO 40.00 X 355000 0 5399 355000 0 5399 1 0 1 0 LITMUS LOGIC 10623 GREAT ARBOR DRIVE POTOMAC MD 20854 CONSULTING SERVICES 171436 DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP 350 SOUTH GRAND AVE LOS ANGELES CA 90071 CONSULTING SERVICES 158590 RAFFA 1899 L STREET NW 900 WASHINGTON DC 20036 ACCOUNTING SERVICES 134852 ELECTROSOFT 1893 METRO CENTER DRIVE RESTON VA 20190 CONSULTING SERVICES 119332 4 CONTRACT REVENUE 900099 1537053 1537053 MEMBERSHIP DUES 900099 647867 647867 SPONSORSHIP REVENUE 900099 42500 42500 CONFERENCE REGISTRATIO 900099 26669 26669 EXHIBITOR REVENUE 900099 11600 11600 2265689 2265689 2265689 0 0 X 360399 414751 13611 99806 36862 41015 186529 623725 28592 8096 33867 85864 119345 2176 33389 LICENSES AND REGISTRATI 20146 AUDIO VISUAL 11249 DUES AND SUBSCRIPTIONS 10332 2129754 28767 69579 26659 137910 7259 16745 6528 5246 3458 1282 22334 19638 88477 245154 304418 432241 113402 6321 417820 438562 X -329343 -193408 -329343 -193408 88477 245154 135935 0 X 0 1 X 0 1 1 0 1 0 6528 5246 1282 1282 SECURITY DEPOSIT 19638 19638 X 2265689 0 2265689 0 2265689 2129754 0 2129754 0 2129754 PART X, LINE 2: TSCP BELIEVES THAT IT HAS APPROPRIATE SUPPORT FOR ANY TAX POSITIONS TAKEN, AND AS SUCH, DOES NOT HAVE ANY UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS THAT ARE MATERIAL TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OR THAT WOULD HAVE AN EFFECT ON ITS TAX-EXEMPT STATUS.
