NLE 2012 Exercise Elements

Four main exercise elements within March –

June 2012 timeframe and with common scenario and governance structure

Information Exchange (Intel/ Law enforcement)

Cyber Effects/Cyber Storm

Cyber Event with Physical Effects (Capstone Exercise)

Continuity Exercise/Eagle Horizon 2012o An operations based Continuity exercise that provides the

opportunity to evaluate the continuity capability of the Federal

Executive Branch departments and agencies

Some D/As will play in all exercises, all D/As must play in the last 2 exercises

18

NLE 12 Overarching Objectives

Examine the National Cyber Incident Response Plan in guiding the

Nation to prepare for, respond to and recover from a significant

cyber event

Review and evaluate existing cyber related authorities and/or policies

Evaluate government roles and responsibilities in coordinating national cyber response efforts and their nexus with physical response efforts, including allocation of resources

Examine the ability to share information across all levels of government and with the private sector (classified and unclassified) as well as the general public to create and maintain cyber incident situational awareness, and coordinate response and short�term recovery efforts

Assess key decision points and decision making in a significant cyber event

19

Eagle Horizon 2012 Objectives

Evaluate the continuity capability of D/As including communications and the performance of essential functions through the implementation of

continuity, devolution and reconstitution plans from activation, until the resumption of normal operations in accordance with Federal continuity directives, during a significant cyber event

Examine broader national continuity capabilities, specifically communications, with State, territorial, tribal, local, and private sector partners

Implement devolution and reconstitution plans and evaluate the capability of Federal D/As to transfer statutory authority and responsibility for essential functions from the primary operating staff and facilities to alternate facilities

D/As may assess additional capabilities based on agency-specific requirements, as long as they can be accomplished within the common scenario

20

NLE/EH 2012 Integration

EH 2012 is fully integrated into NLE 2012 planning and provides

the opportunity for Federal, Regional, State, territorial, tribal, and local organizations to exercise continuity planning responses within the overarching cybersecurity scenarios

EH 2012 will be a Full-Scale Exercise (FSE) scheduled for June 2012 with required participation by Federal Executive Branch D/As

EH 2012 is a mandatory annual exercise directed by National Security Presidential Directive –

51/Homeland Security Presidential Directive –

20 (NSPD-51/HSPD-20)

21

EH 2012 Overview

The EH 2012 linkage with NLE 2012 requires departments and agencies to exercise objectives related to alert and notification, continuity communications, devolution, and reconstitution

EH 2012 will incorporate implementation of Continuity, Devolution, and Reconstitution Plans and capabilities to test implementation

against significant Critical Infrastructure and Key Resources degradation in the communication, energy, and information technology sectors

All D/As will receive an evaluation of their continuity programs

with the results submitted through the Readiness Reporting System

22

NLE/EH 2012 Concept

3-day concept

Day 1: PMEF/MEF at Alternate Facilities –

Scenario Play

Day 2: PMEF/MEF from Devolution Facilities –

Scenario Play

Day 2: Alt ERG member training, Reconstitution Exercise at Continuity Facility

Day 3: Evaluation Coordination/Submissions

23

EH 2012 Evaluation

Continuity portion will be externally evaluated

Devolution will be externally evaluated

D/As Continuity plans will be evaluated 30-60 days prior to the actual exercise

External Continuity evaluation will have Category I,II and III agencies externally evaluated by a FEMA NCP lead evaluator

Cat IV’s agencies will partner together and exchange evaluators for both evaluations

24

EH 2012 Evaluation Process

Evaluators will assess continuity capabilities at exercise locations

Evaluation process uses the Readiness Reporting System (RRS), Participant Questionnaires, General Observation Forms, and the NLE 2012 Exercise Evaluation Guides

FEMA NCP will prepare an assessment and After Action Report/Improvement Plan (AAR/IP) for the National Continuity Coordinator

25

EH 2012 Training Activities

FEMA NCP supports NLE 2012 and EH 2012 with Building Block training activities that includes seminars, tabletop exercises and support to D/A internal exercises

Controller and Evaluator Training

Continuity Program Manager Course

Continuity Planning Workshop

Devolution, Reconstitution and Resilient Accord Workshops

26

The Relationship between Cyber and Continuity

Cyber threats will cause COOP and Devolution Plans to be activated due to:

Rolling power blackouts will cause traffic signal outages, resulting in commuter challenges

Power blackouts will cause communication outages when servers and telephone switchboards lose power

Generators may go down when diesel fuel is not delivered due to the traffic problems, and immediate demand diverts orders to other agencies

Power outages may disable some physical security systems

Door locks may be inoperative

27

FEMA worked in Collaboration with DHS to develop Resilient Accord

The Resilient Accord Workshop is 6-hour tabletop workshop with the following objectives:

Increase organizational awareness about the importance of including cybersecurity considerations into continuity planning

Discuss how cyber disruptions may impact the performance of essential functions and identify solutions to address vulnerabilities in existing continuity plans

Establish or enhance relationships between information technology professionals, emergency managers, and continuity planners

28

Collaboration with DHS NCSD

DHS National Cyber Security Division (NCSD) is a partner in the creation of this continuity workshop that is designed for continuity managers to refine continuity plans and programs to include cybersecurity planning

The mission of NCSD is to work collaboratively with public, private and international entities to secure cyberspace and America’s cyber assets

For organizations working to develop a comprehensive Business Continuity Plan, which incorporates Business Impact Analysis and Threat Analysis, DHS NCSD can serve as the subject matter experts for defining cyber risks and vulnerabilities

29

Cyber Attacks Continue to Affect Continuity Planning

U.S. is the most targeted country for cyber attacks

Essential Functions are becoming ever more dependent on IT systems that are vulnerable to various threats

Continuity Managers should include cyber threats as part of the Business Process Analysis and Business Impact Analysis

Cyber threats were not always identified in many Business Impact Analysis reviewed

National Planning Scenario #15: Cyber Attack

National Level Exercise (2012) will be based on a cyber incident

Better coordination between information technology professionals and continuity planners bridges the gap and enhances successful performance of mission essential functions

30

Things to Consider…

The continuity manager understands the organization’s mission essential functions and the impact of losing this capability

IT personnel, with input from subject matter experts, understand the technical requirements to support performance of mission essential functions

Mission essential functions cannot be successfully accomplished without the cooperative and collaborative input from both the continuity and IT personnel

31

Understand Cyber-linkages

Cyber-linkages between sectors raise the risk of cascading failures throughout the Nation

During an incident, the private sector is often first to detect a problem.

A successful cyber attack on a power plant’s control system could impact several critical sectors, as detailed below:

Electric  

Power Sector

Communications  

Sector

Financial Sector

Emergency 

Response

32

Public/Private Sector Partnership

Your organization cannot succeed in planning for cybersecurity if it works in isolation

Governmental organizations should enhance their partnership with the private sector

Public and private sector’s interests are intertwined with a shared responsibility for ensuring a secure and reliable infrastructure

The success of your continuity planning for cyber threats will be largely dependent on coordination with partners, customers, and stakeholders

The goal of this partnership is to identify continuity interdependencies associated with essential functions

33

Continuity Elements

Essential Functions

Orders of Succession

Delegations of Authority

Continuity Facilities

Continuity Communications

The following are the ten essential elements of a viable continuity of operations program. The ones in bold are the ones that would likely be impacted by a cyber incident.

Vital Records Management

Human Capital

Test, Training, and Exercise

Devolution

Reconstitution

34

Improving Continuity Planning

As organizations work to improve their continuity plans and programs, to include cybersecurity, continuity managers should:

Communicate to senior leadership the importance and value in establishing continuity plans that address cyber risk

Understand the challenges and incorporate methods used to enhance the organization’s ability to perform Mission Essential Functions

Collaborate with IT staff to identify a program’s risk and requirements to support essential functions
