Which management concept was established as a result of NAVWAR testing?

• A. Shipboard Enclaves
• B. CENTRIX
• C. Security Management
• D. Configuration Management

Answer: (B)

Interoperability and secure coalition networking are what NAVWAR testing aimed to establish, and the result was CENTRIX. This approach creates a networked framework that links Navy assets with allied partners under common security controls, enabling trusted information exchange and collaborative operations across different platforms and services. It standardizes how identities, permissions, and data flows are managed so partners can work together effectively without compromising sensitive information.

Shipboard Enclaves focus on isolating networks within a single ship rather than enabling broad coalition interoperability. Security Management is a general discipline, not the specific coalition-network framework NAVWAR formalized. Configuration Management deals with maintaining baselines and tracking changes, not with establishing how disparate organizations securely share information.
