Threat-Risk Assessment (TRA) to be conducted on the RCM System

The RADARSAT Constellation Mission (RCM) is a project to launch in 2018 three Earth Observation (EO) satellites and implement supporting Ground Segment. It is being implemented as a follow-on to RADARSAT-2; however, unlike RADARSAT-2, the RCM is Government owned and operated. The work proposed under this contract is to produce an updated Threat-Risk Assessment (TRA) for RCM. The work produced shall include:

a. a Statement of Sensitivity (SOS) to identify and categorize relevant assets according to their confidentiality, integrity and availability values based upon the injuries that may reasonably be expected in the event of a compromise;

b. an identification of deliberate threats, accidents and natural hazards that might affect these assets adversely with an analysis of the likelihood of occurrence and gravity of impact;

c. an assessment of current vulnerabilities, based on an evaluation of existing or proposed security measures and their adequacy; and,

d. an analysis of residual risks for each asset which is vulnerable to specific threats.
