| | Information Dissemination Management (IDM) |
| | Primary Purpose | Information Dissemination Management is the |
| | subset of Information Management that addresses |
| | awareness, access, and delivery of information. |
| | Involves the compilation, cataloging, caching, |
| | distribution, and retrieval of data. Getting the |
| | information to the right place at the right |
| | time. |
| | Sub-Functions | IDM does not respond to or counter a |
| | DIA-validated threat. However, as a service or |
| | process IDM may reside on systems that are |
| | vulnerable to current and future threats and |
| | therefore, IDM will assume the same vulnerability |
| | as the system. The IDM capability must be |
| | provided in all types of environments throughout |
| | the complete spectrum of operations. |
