4.3 Certification Test and Evaluation (CTE) Program. Assistant Secretary of Defense for Command, Control, Communications, and Intelligence (ASD(C3I)) has mandated compliance with the NITFS for all DOD SIDS. In 1989, on behalf of the Intelligence Community, COMIREX established the NITFS as the standard for imagery transmission. The Central Imagery Office (CIO) oversees the NITFS Certification Test and Evaluation (CTE) Program that determines compliance with the NITFS. The Defense Information Systems Agency's Joint Interoperability Test Center (JITC), located at Ft. Huachucha, Arizona, serves as CIO's Executive Agent for execution of NITFS test-related activities. The JITC has established a NITFS CTE Facility that supports certification testing of NITFS capable systems, validation testing of proposed additions to NITFS, and other test activities related to NITFS. A register of NITFS certified systems is also maintained at the CTE Facility. Detailed information concerning the NITFS Certification Test and Evaluation Program, including the established certification test criteria, is contained in DISA/JIEO Circular 9008.
4.4 Configuration Management of NITFS. As mandated by ASD(C3I) memo dated September 1991, subject: "Executive Agent for DOD Information Standards," NITFS configuration management is managed by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), Joint Interoperability and Engineering Organization (JIEO), Center for Standards (CFS), in accordance with DOD Instruction 5000.2, Defense Acquisition Management Policies and Procedures, 23 February 1991.
