Proactively Ensure ACAS Compliance
The PowerStrux ACAS Validator is a lightweight, Microsoft Windows-based compliance assessment tool that validates Assured Compliance Assessment Solution (ACAS) implementations against Department of War (DoW) requirements, specifically aligned to meet TASKORD 20-0020 compliance requirements. It is designed for DoW Services and Agencies and contractor environments that must demonstrate ACAS compliance prior to official inspections, as well as commercial organizations aiming to align with established best practices.
What ACAS Validator Does
The ACAS Validator automatically evaluates ACAS configurations and operational settings to identify compliance gaps early, before they are discovered during formal assessments. It replaces slow, manual reviews with a continuous monitoring validation process, reducing assessment time and human error. It validates and reports on:
Discovery Scan Operations
Active Scanning Operations
Scan Tool Hygiene and Operator Training
Terrain Identification and Coverage
When to Use
Organizations should use the ACAS validator:
- Prior to an official ACAS or Cyber Operational Readiness Assessment (CORA)
- After initial ACAS deployment or major configuration changes
- As part of continuous compliance and readiness monitoring
- To validate interpretation and implementation of TASKORD 20-0020 requirements across environments
How it Works
ACAS Validator securely connects to Tenable Security Center to extract configuration and operational data. That data is analyzed against technical requirements derived from TASKORD 20-0020. This lightweight solution needs no additional software, enabling a straightforward Windows-based deployment.
