Priority Objective 3: Data Tagging

Adopt metadata standards to facilitate federated discovery, access, correlation, and monitoring across Federal networks and security domains.

Steward

Information Integration Subcommittee (II SC) of the ISA IPC, partnering with the Federal Identity, Credential, and Access Management (FICAM) Subcommittee of the Federal Chief Information Officer (CIO) Council

Problem Statement

A lack of common metadata tagging standards across all security domains inhibits effective data search, correlation, and the simultaneous safeguarding of data and Personal Identifiable Information.

Desired Outcome

Develop common metadata standards for data tagging across Federal agencies and security domains to advance information sharing and safeguarding.

Approach

Common metadata standards for data tagging will be developed by Federal agencies to advance information sharing and safeguarding. Standards will be developed for a common lexicon that can be applied across the ISE, information from foreign sources, and processes around lifecycle management of data tagging protocols.
