Knowledge

Knowledge of network design processes, to include understanding of security objectives, operational objectives, and tradeoffs.

Items denoted by a * are CORE KSATs for every Work Role, while other CORE KSATs vary by Work Role.


Core KSAT for the following Work Roles

Enterprise Architect (Core) ID: 651 (NIST ID: SP-ARC-001) Workforce Element: IT (Cyberspace)

Develops and maintains business, systems, and information processes to support enterprise mission needs; develops information technology (IT) rules and requirements that describe baseline and target architectures.

Information Systems Security Developer (Core) ID: 631 (NIST ID: SP-SYS-001) Workforce Element: Cybersecurity

Designs, develops, tests, and evaluates information system security throughout the systems development lifecycle.

Systems Security Analyst (Core) ID: 461 (NIST ID: OM-AN-001) Workforce Element: Software Engineering

Responsible for analysis and development of systems/software security through the product lifecycle to include integration, testing, operations and maintenance.

Additional KSAT for the following Work Roles

Host Analyst (Additional) ID: 463 (NIST ID: N/A) Workforce Element: Cyberspace Effects

A Host Analyst (HA) will have knowledge of various system configurations encountered. This work role also performs analysis using built-in tools and capabilities. A Host Analyst will have knowledge of system services and the security and configuration of them, as well as knowledge of file systems, permissions, and operation system configurations. The Host Analyst conducts analysis using built-in tools and capabilities.

Network Analyst (Additional) ID: 443 (NIST ID: N/A) Workforce Element: Cyberspace Effects

The Network Analyst will understand network traffic signatures and discover anomalies through network traffic and packet capture (PCAP) analysis. The Network Analyst will identify, assess, and mitigate intrusions into networks that are vital to cyberspace operations security. Network Analysts also use GUI or command-line based tools and assist in developing network mapping and signatures. Network Analysts will develop advanced network detection rules and alerts, queries and dashboards to gain a holistic view of the network.

Security Architect (Additional) ID: 652 (NIST ID: SP-ARC-002) Workforce Element: Cybersecurity

Designs enterprise and systems security throughout the development lifecycle; translates technology and environmental conditions (e.g., law and regulation) into security designs and processes.

Systems Developer (Additional) ID: 632 (NIST ID: SP-SYS-002) Workforce Element: IT (Cyberspace)

Designs, develops, tests, and evaluates information systems throughout the systems development lifecycle.

Systems Requirements Planner (Additional) ID: 641 (NIST ID: SP-RP-001) Workforce Element: IT (Cyberspace)

Consults with customers to evaluate functional requirements and translate functional requirements into technical solutions.
