Threat Based Cybersecurity
What Is DoDCAR / GovCAR?
A threat-based cybersecurity process designed to evaluate cybersecurity readiness and inform architecture choices. The methodology was developed inside the DoD and is now required for analyzing the risk profile of high value assets throughout the federal government. The analysis empowers departments and agencies to make threat-based cyber risk decisions required by Executive Order 13800.
DoDCAR / GovCAR moves away from compliance only focus and instead identifies how well organizations can detect and defeat known threats. The results provide a clear return on investment as each dollar spent should address the most likely and impactful risks to the organization.
