What is Resilience?

Judith Rodin—former head, Rockefeller Foundation: • The capacity of any entity –

• an individual, a community, an organization, or a natural system

• to prepare for disruptions, to recover from shocks and stresses,

• and then to adapt and grow from a disruptive experience

Two critical concepts

• Organizational capacity • Ability to adapt and grow

“Be prepared to bounce forward better”

A Profile of Resilience (Be Prepared to Bounce Forward Better)

Security vs. Resilience

2/27/2020 final 3

• “locking up and protectingthings”

Security is about:

• Achieving organization’s goals• Under any level of shock or

stress• Fighting back• Emerging stronger

Resilience is about:

Mission Assurance

• Resilience is very close to MissionAssurance• Absorb shocks, “fight hurt,” restore full capability

quickly

• Not just tactical approaches, but also• Design• Configuration control• Rigorous training at all levels• Command culture

Types of Resilience • Cultural

• Organization fights back • Foundation of ethics, principles, governance

• Operational • Resilient networks and telecoms systems • Comms flows, Command & Control (C2) maintained

• Infrastructural • Essential services are sustained and restored • Growing infrastructure interdependencies are understood

SSA vs SDA in Japan

• Space Situational Awareness (SSA):

• “catalog maintenance” • Detect, track, and identify all artificial objects in Earth orbit

• Space as a Domain* • NDPG 2018 added space as a domain in which to protect Japan’s national interests, and Japanese nationals’ life, person and property • Not same as a “warfighting domain” in US military context • Still, Space Domain Awareness (SDA) requires more than SSA

Implementating Effective SDA in Japan • SDA: identify, characterize and understand factors, passive or active,

associated with space domain that could “ensure superiority in use ofspace at all stages from peacetime to armed contingencies… ”

• Japanese capabilities could reduce likelihoodof conflict

• Japan “promote partnership and cooperationincluding SSA & mission assurance of entirespace system, through consultations,information sharing…& multilateral exercises”

• Must include “effective defense capability”• Japan-US Alliance is essential• Contribute to comprehensive, whole-of- government efforts

Resilience of SDA Assets • Life-cycle issue

• Layers of resilience = hardware, software, data, information, humans, processes,facilities, materials, and natural physical entities

• Combine “resilience engineering,” “systems security engineering,” and “cyberresiliency engineering” with risk management

• Excellent references available, e.g. NIST Special Publications

• Example: Principles of cyber-resilient spacecraft• Intrusion detection systems (IDS)• Intrusion protection systems (IPS)• Supply chain risk management (software & hardware)• Logging--verify legitimate ops and do forensics• Other standard cyber protections

• Implement resiliency in all segments, at all layers2/27/2020 final 9 Source: NASIC [email protected], 202.436.6354, Skype: linwells

Japan’s Other New Domains Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) and Cyberspace relate closely to Space domain • Both essential to operations in and through Space • Superiority in both can help prevent conflict

EMS • Space activities depend on spectrum • Frequency allocation—not just RF • International agreements Cyberspace • Cyber situational awareness key • Must defend all segments against cyber attack • Cyber – EW convergence • Include physical threats to cyber infrastructure

Evolving Nature of SDA • Future space domain (2030)

• Include operations around and beyond the moon • Many more satellites near earth • Many more players—national, non-governmental, commercial • Dramatic tech change

2/27/2020 final 11

• What changes in SDA will be needed?

Building Resilient SDA • No easy, magic solutions • Cultural—Takes time to develop

• Stand up ASDF SDA office with forward-looking view • Provide decision authority • Grow cadre of people • Build collaboration

• Operational—design resilience in from beginning • Make use of references

• Infrastructural—Anticipate growing interdependencies • Interoperability is key to success

• Effective information security will be very important • Anticipate expanding space domain and tech changes • Link SDF SDA to commercial and civilian—broad portfolio of capabilities
