MO-007 — Connected, Disconnected, and Air-Gapped Operation

Go to Mission Objectives

Statement

DIDO-TE SHALL support testing operations in Connected Environments, Disconnected Environments, and Air-Gapped Environments.

Derived From

MO-007 derives from the DIDO-TE mission objective requiring testing operations across environments with different connectivity and isolation characteristics.

MO-007 decomposes into:

Rationale

Organizations conduct development, evaluation, qualification, and authorization activities in environments with different connectivity and isolation characteristics.

A Connected Environment provides access to permitted external networks and services. A Disconnected Environment operates without active external network connectivity during the relevant operation. An Air-Gapped Environment maintains physical isolation from external networks.

Support for all three environment types enables DIDO-TE to test Candidate Solutions under conditions representative of their intended operational environments.

The three environment types impose distinct requirements for:

Access to external networks and servicesIntroduction of testing artifacts and dependenciesTransfer of Transfer BundlesConfiguration and execution of testsCollection and removal of Test ResultsCollection and preservation of logs and EvidenceIntegrity, provenance, and TraceabilityApplication of security and authorization controlsThe child requirements define the obligations applicable to each environment type.

Applies To

MO-007 applies to:

Verification

Verification confirms that:

MO-007a defines the requirements for testing operations in Connected EnvironmentsMO-007b defines the requirements for testing operations in Disconnected EnvironmentsMO-007c defines the requirements for testing operations in Air-Gapped EnvironmentsThe child requirements preserve the distinctions among Connected, Disconnected, and Air-Gapped EnvironmentsThe child requirements address the introduction of required testing artifacts and the collection of Test Results and Evidence under the applicable connectivity and isolation conditions

Notes for Editors

MO-007 is a non-leaf requirement page. Its child requirements contain the separately verifiable normative obligations for each environment type.

The explicit child links remain in the Derived From section to document the normative decomposition. The Contents section dynamically lists the child pages.

The MO-007 namespace retains the trailing `:start`:

dido:03-dido-te:99-annexes:annex-c-requirements:01-mission-objectives:mo-007:start

The child requirement namespaces omit `:start`.
