For the U.S. Dept. of Defense (DoD) and Military Health System (MHS), a paramount concern is safeguarding the sensitive information entrusted to them by 9.2 million beneficiaries and patients.

The security of MHS information systems and networks that process or store that data, and contractor-owned systems connecting to them, is ensured through the DoD Information Technology Security Certification & Accreditation Program (DITSCAP), with its comprehensive and stringent requirements.

For more than five years, the MHS has selected NSSPlus and its partner organizations to conduct certification and accreditation of its contractor systems. During that time, NSSPlus and its partners have successfully led certification efforts for information systems at more than 200 sites across the nation.

Closely partnering with the MHS and its contractor sites and employing state-of-the-art security technologies and tools, NSSPlus teams have carried out rigorous reviews, including vulnerability scans and physical security assessments, and assisted with implementing and verifiying mitigations.

Today, the MHS is regarded as an industry leader in Information Assurance.
