What Is CSAR Prepare?

CSAR Prepare simplifies the path to Authorization to Operate (ATO) approval through automation and advising, supporting the Prepare and Categorize System steps of the Risk Management Framework (RMF).

CSAR Prepare employs an automation driven modular approach while keeping a human-in-the-loop to actively review applications for accuracy and provide feedback, guiding the user forward to a “mature cyber environment” and on path toward an authorization decision. The entire experience offers refined processes to reduce chance of errors, confusion, and fatigue.

CSAR presents form questions in easy, manageable sections and eliminates question redundancy. CSAR provides question level feedback, helping users understand the impact of their answer choices on their timeline to package submission and risk of package return.

CSAR Streamlines and Simplifies the ATO Process

CSAR Prepare eliminates the unknowns and repetitive tasks that delay and disrupt timely delivery of valuable technology to our military. Users are enabled to make smart, prompt decisions, allowing applications to be adaptive in keeping pace with RMF requirements around cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities.

Within the RMF Framework, CSAR Prepare provides capabilities around the Prepare and Categorize System steps, helping to simplify the ATO process, specifically for those who aren’t RMF experts, which saves time and increases efficiency and accuracy.

CSAR lowers the barrier to entry for Extended Reality (XR) software developers, enabling security at the speed of innovation in the Lightweight Simulator Ecosystem (LSE). Baseline security controls are identified, threats are assessed, and risk is reviewed. Based on the maturity of the solution CSAR will provide customized suggestions that guide developers towards a more expedient ATO process.
