1 David Lanter PhD GISP Information Security Risks and Controls of Public Geospatial Datasets July 17, 2014
2 This Presentation CDM Smith applies GIS and develops custom applications producing, deploying and disseminating geospatial datasets for our public agency clients We are responsible for understanding the unique information security risks and controls associated with protecting public geospatial data Risks and Controls of Public Geospatial Datasets
3 Presentation 1. Background 2. GIS Data are Important 3. National Spatial Data Infrastructure 4. Critical National Infrastructure 5. Risks to Critical National Infrastructure 6. Inherent Risks 7. Mitigating Controls 8. Research Opportunities Risks and Controls of Public Geospatial Datasets
4 Background 1950 s 60 s Will Garrison and his students at the University of Washington in Seattle (dubbed the space cadets ) lead the quantitative revolution in geography 1961 Lee Pratt of Canada Land Inventory boards plane and sits next to Roger Tomlinson and describes his problem Unfeasible estimate of $8 million to produce maps and analyze land use of >100 million sq. miles of rural lands 1963 Tomlinson proposes $3 million project to solve the problem with computers Risks and Controls of Public Geospatial Datasets
5 Background 1970 s First GIS: Tomlinson s Canada GIS spatial queries and analyses of Earth s surface Situational awareness Resource inventories Change detection monitoring Raster to Vector conversion 1976 Ford Foundation funds Geography Chair at Harvard Brian Berry (Garrison s student) appointed Chair and directs the Laboratory for Computer Graphics and Spatial Analysis where research leading to ArcGIS (PIOS, Whirlpool, etc ) and Spatial Analyst (GRID) was conducted Risks and Controls of Public Geospatial Datasets
6 Background Over the decades, GIS capabilities improve Proprietary commercial, academic and governmental open source GIS packages developed and bundled Migrated across hardware platforms and operating systems Ported from mainframe to mini-computers, to personal computers Geocoding, navigation, and display reengineered and fused with real-time location and geographic sensors On-board computers in cars, planes and boats Risks and Controls of Public Geospatial Datasets
7 Background Over the decades, GIS capabilities improve Geo-relational geospatial data structures associating descriptive attributes with spatial representations Complex disk file storage formats evolved into enterprise relational databases containing spatial indexes (for rapid spatial searches) Spatially enabled middleware connected to a wide-range of custom and commercial off the shelf client applications Client-server and n-tier architectures move GIS back to larger enterprise computer servers and onto web servers supporting distributed personal computers, laptops, and other mobile platforms Risks and Controls of Public Geospatial Datasets
8 GIS Data are Important GIS Data play a central role in the United States Geographic location is key element of 80-90% of all governmental data (FGDC, 2006) Essential to >50% of Nation s domestic economic activities (National Academy of Public Administration, 1998)
9 GIS Data are Important Free flow of geographic information between government and public is recognized as essential Informs public for participation in democratic decision making Private businesses reuse the public s investment in government information Disseminating public geospatial data is central to the missions of many public, private and non-profit organizations
10 National Spatial Data Infrastructure 1994 President Clinton signs Executive Order Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) to create National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI), and Address $ billions wasted Redundant collection of undocumented hard to find geospatial data stored in incompatible formats Encourage Agencies to standup NSDI Clearing House nodes on Internet Populated with geospatial data and their descriptive metadata
11 National Spatial Data Infrastructure FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata
12 Critical National Infrastructure In 1996, President Clinton signed Executive Order which formally identified certain infrastructure as vulnerable to attack by explaining: Certain national infrastructures are so vital that their incapacity or destruction would have a debilitating impact on the defense or economic security of the United States Water supply systems Transportation Electrical power systems Continuity of government Telecommunications Gas and oil storage and transport Banking and finance Emergency services
13 Critical National Infrastructure After 9/11/2001 attention focused on protecting critical infrastructure that the U.S. advisories might seek to attack U.S. officials began instituting policies to protect information it was not too long before GIS data made available through Clearinghouse nodes of NSDI became recognized as at risk of being exploited by those seeking to attack U.S. major cities and critical infrastructure
14 Risks to Critical National Infrastructure In 2003, Director of U.S. National Imagery and Mapping Agency (in 2004 renamed National Geospatial- Intelligence Agency) asked RAND Corporation for a: Framework to guide public and private decision makers in weighing homeland security implications related to release of geospatial information
15 Risks to Critical National Infrastructure RAND s 2004 Deliverable included a Survey and Analysis of 465 programs/offices/initiatives at 30 agencies and departments identified as providing geospatial information to the public 628 public datasets sampled from NSDI Clearinghouse nodes 37 (~6%) found to be useful in helping an attacker select a target or plan an attack against a site None were so critical that an attacker could not perform the attack without them Conclusions Publically available geospatial information needed for identifying and locating potential targets is widely accessible detailed and up-to-date information required for attack planning against a particular target is much less readily available
16 Risks to Critical National Infrastructure
17 Risks to Critical National Infrastructure Does knowledge of the location and purpose of a feature as described in the data, have the potential to significantly compromise the security of persons, property, or systems? FGDC Guidelines based on RAND s 2004 study
18 Inherent Risks Classification of geospatial data sensitivity is based on usefulness to terrorists Does it contain Choke points that can increase effectiveness of an attack?
19 Inherent Risks Does it include information that can be used to find the best way to cause catastrophic failure? Does it contain temporal information identifying times of increased security vulnerability?
20 Mitigating Controls
21 Mitigating Controls If security risks outweigh benefits of releasing the data to the public, agency can choose to safeguard data by: Modifying data Remove or reduce detail in offending data elements either in the attributes, spatial representations, or both Restricting access to data If agency lacks authority to change data, or believes modifying data will undermine its value to the public, then agency can restrict access
22 Mitigating Controls Remove, or reduce detail in offending data elements Apply techniques of Cartographic Generalization 1. Selective Omission 2. Simplification 3. Combination 4. Exaggeration 5. Displacement
23 Mitigating Controls Restricting Access to Geospatial Data is accomplished through identification, permissions and authorization systems of IT data management systems and applications Restricting Access SANS Institute Security Risk Management Process Diagram - Microsoft
24 Control Policies
25 Control Policies (1), (3), (4) Note: See for Crosswalk from FGDC CSDCM to ISO metadata standard
26 Control Policies (2)
27 Mitigating Controls (4)
28 Supporting metadata development tools
29 An Inherent Weakness as Mitigating Controls Other than Security Classification, FGDC Metadata are unstructured Type: text Domain: None free text
30 Research Opportunities in Automating Mitigating Controls 1. Structured metadata + 2. Reliable identity and authorization management system = Automated security policy implementation tools to: Block access to data by unauthorized users Determine whether to present FOUO original version or generalized version to the user
31 Research Opportunities in Automating Mitigating Controls 1. Structured metadata 2. Reliable identity and authorization management system Automated security policy implementation tools to block access of unauthorized users Security Policy Language (Kotenko et al. 2007) = Tools able to detect, identify, and help resolve inconsistencies among policies within and among Agencies which provide sensitive geospatial data to NSDI Kotenko, Igor, Artem Tishkov, Olga Chervatuk, Ekaterina Sidelnikova, Security Policy Verification Tool for Geographic Information Systems, in Information Fusion and Geographic Information Systems Lecture Notes in Geoinformation and Cartography, Springer, pp
