Explanation
DITSCAP (DoD Information Technology Security Certification and Accreditation Process) has four phases: Phase 1 (Definition), Phase 2 (Verification), Phase 3 (Validation), and Phase 4 (Post-Accreditation). The System Security Authorization Agreement (SSAA) is the cornerstone document of DITSCAP and is created and agreed upon during Phase 1 (Definition). It defines the system's security requirements, boundaries, and the roles/responsibilities of all parties. Subsequent phases use the SSAA as a reference to verify, validate, and maintain compliance.
