Information Security Plan for Flight Simulator Applications

TL;DR

This paper presents a security plan for a two-factor authentication system designed for secure remote access to Department of Defense flight simulator applications, including architecture, encryption, and phased implementation.

Contribution

It introduces a comprehensive security architecture and phased deployment plan for a web-based identity management system for sensitive defense applications.

Findings

Security architecture outlined in the plan

Encryption methods specified in documentation

Phased implementation to address issues

Abstract

The Department of Defense has a need for an identity management system that uses two factor authentications to ensure that only the correct individuals get access to their top secret flight simulator program. Currently the Department of Defense does not have a web interface sign in system. We will be creating a system that will allow them to access their programs, back office and administrator functions remotely. A security plan outlining our security architecture will be delivered prior to the final code roll out. The plan will include responses to encryption used and the security architecture applied in the final documentation. The code will be delivered in phases to work out any issues that may occur during the implementation
