Tactical Level Risk Acceptance (TLRA)
TLRA is a modern military risk tolerance philosophy to accept higher risk for operational or tactical units. Government I.T. processes for military requirements can be cumbersome and lengthy. Operational or tactical requirements simply cannot wait for these processes to complete. Years can go by. There may be a desire to apply NIST special publication 800-53 security and privacy controls across a broad spectrum of military technology without any understanding of the risk or vulnerabilities of these military systems. There is also often a lack of any analysis of probably and impact of a successful exploit on these specialized systems. Furthermore, forced adoption of a "one size fits all" doctrine with complete central governance greatly hinders highly operational military subject matter experts in implementing technology which meet their requirements. For example, Joint Interface Control Officers (JICO) are experts in the field of tactical communications which includes Link 16. Although a vulnerability assessment may be reasonable for Link 16 components, attempting to ensure that a Link 16 network is secure according to central governance doctrine by non experts is detrimental to operational effectiveness. Furthermore, such networks or IP based extensions of these network operate on closed classified networks. The attack surface is, in this respect, extremely small and reduced to insider threats, cross-domain or coalition activity risk. Therefore, TLRA is a military philosophy that may be embraced by a nation's military governance body. Embracing TLRA provides much more control to end units to essentially get the job done as well as rectify issues on the spot when they arise. In a tactical or highly operational context, it is important for end units to not have to rely on a central governing body for obtaining permission for critical changes which have a temporal component for mission success.
