  • Provide risk-informed recommendations and comprehensive staffing packages supporting ATO, ATO with Conditions, or Denial decisions.
  • Develop or oversee Mission Impact Assessments, security-control assessment findings, POA&M escalation reports, cybersecurity policy updates, and leadership decision materials.
  • Facilitate resolution of information-assurance issues among system owners, security personnel, program offices, and the FM AO.
  • Lead cybersecurity status briefings, annual program reviews, AO decision-support sessions, governance forums, and working groups.
  • Oversee the cybersecurity workforce’s compliance with role-based qualification, certification documentation, access, security, and training requirements.
  • Coordinate cybersecurity implications of configuration changes, system modifications, development/test activities, vulnerability remediation, and production-readiness decisions.
  • Ensure cybersecurity documentation governance, version control, records traceability, quality assurance, and QASP-aligned performance reporting.
