DCSA posts RFI for PSAM platform

On September 14, the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA) posted a request for information for a Personnel Security Alert Management (PSAM) Platform. Responses are due by 1:00 p.m. Eastern on September 22.

DCSA’s Continuous Vetting (CV) program faces high daily detection volumes from many sources, much of it low-value noise.  Alerts which are drawn from dozens of criminal, financial, terrorism-screening, foreign-contact, foreign-travel, and public-record data sources are still worked largely first-in-first-out rather than by risk, so high-consequence alerts can wait behind routine, low-risk items and case queues have grown faster than staffing. While CV has made progress in detecting potential risk indicators far faster than legacy periodic-reinvestigation models, it is still triaging risk with case-management approaches built for a lower-volume era.

DCSA seeks information from Security Information Event Management (SIEM) and Security Operations Center (SOC) platform vendors on commercial capabilities that can support personnel-security operations through cybersecurity event correlation, alert triage, risk-based prioritization, and workflow automation.

DCSA is particularly interested in solutions that can identify, correlate, prioritize, and route cybersecurity alerts and incidents associated with members of the trusted workforce for appropriate personnel-security review.
