Explanation

DIACAP (DoD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process) defines five phases for managing IA throughout a system's lifecycle: (1) System Definition - establishing the IA strategy; (2) Verification - implementing and validating assigned IA controls; (3) Validation - making the certification determination and accreditation decision; (4) Re-Accreditation - maintaining the Authority to Operate (ATO) and conducting periodic reviews; and (5) Decommission (not listed among the choices). 'Identification' (E) and 'Accreditation' (F) are not named phases in DIACAP - the accreditation decision occurs within the Validation phase, not as a separate named phase.
