Checklist Summary:
A core mission for the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Field Security Operations(FSO) is to secure Department of Defense (DoD) instant messaging systems. The processes andprocedures outlined in this Security Technica l Information Guide (STIG), when applied, will decrease the risk of unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information. Security is clearly still one of the biggest concerns for our DoD customers (i.e., the warfighter). The intent of this STIG is to include security considerations and to provide an acceptable level of risk for information being transmitted. This STIG was developed to enhance the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive DoD Automated Information Systems (AIS). Instant messaging systems must provide secure, available, and reliable data for all customers. This document will assist sites in meeting the minimum requirements, standards, controls, and options that must be in place for secure instant messaging environments.
