CVO04: CV Administrative Processes

This service package supports program administration and enrollment and provides for electronic application, processing, fee collection, issuance, and distribution of CVO credential and tax filing. Through this process, carriers, drivers, and vehicles may be enrolled in a variety of programs including electronic clearance and wireless inspection programs which allow commercial vehicles to be screened at mainline speeds. Through this enrollment process, current profile databases are maintained in the Commercial Vehicle Administration Center and snapshots of this data are made available to the roadside check facilities. Current program status is maintained and made available to carriers, drivers, and other authorized users of the data. Enrolled carriers are provided the option to review and challenge the collected data.

Commercial Vehicle Administration Centers can share current program status and credential information with other Centers, so that it is possible for any Commercial Vehicle Administration Center to have access to all credentials, credential fees, credentials status and safety status information. In addition, it is possible for one Commercial Vehicle Administration Center to collect HAZMAT route restrictions information from other Commercial Vehicle Administration Centers and then act as a clearinghouse for this route restrictions information.

It represents centers that manage a broad range of transportation facilities including freeway systems, rural and suburban highway systems, and urban and suburban traffic control systems. It communicates with ITS Roadway Equipment and Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment (RSE) to monitor and manage traffic flow and monitor the condition of the roadway, surrounding environmental conditions, and field equipment status. It manages traffic and transportation resources to support allied agencies in responding to, and recovering from, incidents ranging from minor traffic incidents through major disasters.
Transportation Information Center Center The 'Transportation Information Center' collects, processes, stores, and disseminates transportation information to system operators and the traveling public. The physical object can play several different roles in an integrated ITS. In one role, the TIC provides a data collection, fusing, and repackaging function, collecting information from transportation system operators and redistributing this information to other system operators in the region and other TICs. In this information redistribution role, the TIC provides a bridge between the various transportation systems that produce the information and the other TICs and their subscribers that use the information. The second role of a TIC is focused on delivery of traveler information to subscribers and the public at large. Information provided includes basic advisories, traffic and road conditions, transit schedule information, yellow pages information, ride matching information, and parking information. The TIC is commonly implemented as a website or a web-based application service, but it represents any traveler information distribution service.

If this information is not available it may slow processing of vehicles administered through equipment managed by other CVAC.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Enforcement Center carrier participation report Moderate Moderate Low
Possibly competitive information, so should be protected to avoid anti-competitive business practices. Doesn't seem critical to any real-time application, but as with all flows should be correct. A candidate for LOW. No real time data; if this gets delayed there is no appreciable impact.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Financial Center payment request Moderate Moderate Moderate
Contains account and related information that is personal and if compromised could financially impact the owner of the account. Payment flows must all have some integrity protection and consistent availability to prohibit forgery and instill confidence in the payment process. Repurcussions of roadway payment are individually fairly small, collectiviely significant but probably never catastrophic. Thus MODERATE for both integrity and availability.

Repurcussions of roadway payment are individually fairly small, collectiviely significant but probably never catastrophic. Thus MODERATE for both integrity and availability.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Fleet and Freight Management Center commercial vehicle permit Moderate Moderate Moderate
Indicates company and individual vehicle permitting information, which is competitive commercial data. Observation of this information could provide leverage or business advantage over a particular carrier. If incorrect a vehicle or carrier may be misled about what permits it has or needs, resulting in a potential for being improperly permitted and penalized. MODERATE and not HIGH because the impact is likely to be limited and can likely be easily addressed. If this flow is inconcistently available there is probably little harm. It should not be required for real-time response.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Fleet and Freight Management Center compliance review report Moderate Moderate Moderate
Compliance information can be competitive, if observed by hostile third party could be used against the carrier. Compliance review needs to be timely and accurate to support internal commercial vehicle processes and not trigger unnecessary action. Compliance review needs to be timely and accurate to support internal commercial vehicle processes and not trigger unnecessary action.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Fleet and Freight Management Center credentials information High Moderate Moderate
Credentials contain PII and proprietary information including trip data. This is private and competitive. If revealed, could provide leverage over carrier and/or vehicle. Incorrect or unavailable credentials information could delay clearance, could result in incorrect assessment of penalties. MODERATE and not HIGH because the impact should be limited. Incorrect or unavailable credentials information could delay clearance, could result in incorrect assessment of penalties. MODERATE and not HIGH because the impact should be limited.

Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Fleet and Freight Management Center cv driver record High High Moderate
Contains PII including driver identity, license and citations. If this were revealed then leverage could be had over the driver. Incorrect or unavailable information could lead to a cited driver proceeding when he should not, or a clear driver improperly cited. In either case, this could be used to manipulate the driver's clearance. Incorrect or unavailable information could lead to a cited driver proceeding when he should not, or a clear driver improperly cited. In either case, this could be used to manipulate the driver's clearance. Availability set to MODERATE because without this data, the CVCE operator will fall back on other processes.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Fleet and Freight Management Center route restrictions Low Moderate Low
Should be public data, so no need for obfuscation. Incorrect route restrictions data will not affect the FFMC but will affect the eventual user, and may result in a commercial vehicle being in a place the vehicle is not permitted. This information should not need to be updated often.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Fleet and Freight Management Center safety status information Moderate Moderate Low
Safety status information includes PII: vehicle identity and past performance information. This this information is private, between the inspection agency and the vehicle owner. Divulging this information could provide leverage or business advantage. Information associated with vehicle safety and past performance should be correct so the FFMC and its associated vehicles undestand the inspection regime in which they operate. This flow should not need to be updated often. Even if not functioning when an update should occur, the effect should be limited to those vehicles operating under the trigger conditions in between updates. Could possibly be MODERATE if trigger areas are very dynamic in a given area.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Other CV Administration Centers accident report Moderate Moderate Moderate
Commercial vehicle safety accident report will include particulars of involved operators and vehicles and possibly other PII. Repurcussions of inaccurate data likely limited to the operators involved which should be small in number. Any such repurcussions are pos-real time and so should have measures for correcting inaccurate data, thus limited to MODERATE. Timely access required for some application functionality, but borderline to LOW availability as none of this should be strictly real-time.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Other CV Administration Centers citation Moderate Moderate Moderate
May contain PII, depending on the citation and type of information included could be HIGH. Citation information should be correct and timely or the destination may be improperly informed of citation information, jeopardizing the operations of affected vehicles. Citation information should be correct and timely or the destination may be improperly informed of citation information, jeopardizing the operations of affected vehicles.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Other CV Administration Centers commercial vehicle permit information Moderate Moderate Moderate
Indicates company and individual vehicle permitting information, which is competitive commercial data. Observation of this information could provide leverage or business advantage over a particular carrier. If incorrect a vehicle or carrier may be misled about what permits it has or needs, resulting in a potential for being improperly permitted and penalized. MODERATE and not HIGH because the impact is likely to be limited and can likely be easily addressed. If this flow is inconsistently available there is probably little harm. It may be required for real-time CVO checking action, but the effect will apply to only one or at most, a limited number of drivers at a given location.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Other CV Administration Centers credential fee coordination Low Moderate Low
Should be public information. Rates for various credentials should be correct to ensure no misinformation on the part of carriers, lest they react inappropriately. Probably does not change often so does not need to always function.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Other CV Administration Centers credentials information High High Moderate
Credentials contain PII and proprietary information including trip data. This is private and competitive. If revealed, could provide leverage over carrier and/or vehicle. Incorrect or unavailable credentials information could delay clearance, could result in incorrect assessment of penalties. HIGH because the impact should be extensive as this flow could include credentials information for large numbers of carriers and vehicles. Incorrect or unavailable credentials information could delay clearance, could result in incorrect assessment of penalties. MODERATE because while the impact could be extensive due to the number of vehicles involved, the flow can be reestablished and any issues fixed relatively quickly.

Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Other CV Administration Centers route restrictions Low Moderate Low
Should be public data, so no need for obfuscation. Incorrect route restrictions data will not affect the TIC but will affect the eventual user, and may result in a commercial vehicle being in a place the vehicle is not permitted. This information should not need to be updated often.
Commercial Vehicle Administration Center Other CV Administration Centers safety status information Moderate Moderate Moderate
Credentials data are vehicle-specific even if they don't include PII, and thus between the inspection agency and the vehicle owner. Divulging this information could provide leverage or business advantage. Incorrect or corrupted credentials data will affect the individual commercial vehicle and should be correct, but the scope of such corruption or errors should be limited. If this information is not available it may slow processing of vehicles administered through equipment managed by other CVAC.

Commercial Vehicle Administrator Commercial Vehicle Administration Center commercial vehicle administrative request Moderate Moderate High
Human interface that implies command/control, which should be protected from reverse engineering. Request needs to be correct, or the wrong data may be provided in the response flow. Human interfaces are expected to work at all times.
CVO Information Requestor Center Commercial Vehicle Administration Center request for data review High Moderate Moderate
May contain a reference to a driver, which can be PII. If corrupted or modified would yield no results or return results to different carrier or driver, which negates the flow's purpose. This is basically an error-checking flow; depending on the types of drivers and/or assignments, this could be MODERATE (for higher priority loads, HAZMAT etc.).
DMV Commercial Vehicle Administration Center registration Moderate Moderate Moderate
Will contain PII of driver and/or vehicle owner. Not HIGH because this affects a small number of individuals, and because safety of life is not likely a concern for this flow. Registration/ownership information needs to be correct, the lack of correctness may lead to false paths which have a nontrivial cost. Real-time decisions may be made based on this information.
Enforcement Center Commercial Vehicle Administration Center information on violators High Moderate Moderate
Contains PII and violation information, that if disclosed to parties other than the destination could provide leverage (business or personal) over the commercial vehicle. Should be correct due to actions that may be taken as a result of this information. Corruption or modification of data may lead to actions taken against parties that should not be acted against, or a lack of action against someone that should be penalized. Such actions likely limited in scope and certainly limited in targets, thus MODERATE. CV operations generally should be kept up to date on violations so they may response appropriately. Lack of this flow will delay those actions, but the consequences of such while significant are unlikely to be catastrophic.
Financial Center Commercial Vehicle Administration Center settlement Moderate Moderate Moderate
This may include PII and will include status information about a payment that could be used by a criminal for a variety of purposes, including identity theft, financial theft, or location-based activities, as the status is predictivie of what the account holder is doing and where they are doing it. Payment flows must all have some integrity protection and consistent availability to prohibit forgery and instill confidence in the payment process. Repurcussions of roadway payment are individually fairly small, collectiviely significant but probably never catastrophic. Thus MODERATE for both integrity and availability. Payment flows must all have some integrity protection and consistent availability to prohibit forgery and instill confidence in the payment process. Repurcussions of roadway payment are individually fairly small, collectiviely significant but probably never catastrophic. Thus MODERATE for both integrity and availability.
Fleet and Freight Management Center Commercial Vehicle Administration Center audit data Moderate Moderate Low
Tax-related information may include a broad swath of information, and regardless can be competitive, so should not be divulged lest the source be negatively impacted. Taxing information needs to be accurate or the source may over/under pay, and may be penalized. There should be other mechanisms for retrieving this information, and it also probably does not need to be instantiated very often.
Fleet and Freight Management Center Commercial Vehicle Administration Center credential application High Moderate Low
Includes personal and payment information that if compromised would have severe impact on the individual that is the subject of the application. Personal ID and payment data needs to be correct or the individual will not be approved or properly pay. However the impact is limited to the application and individual in question, which is why it is MODERATE. This information does not need real time access and can safely be assigned LOW. There should be alternative mechanisms as well.
Fleet and Freight Management Center Commercial Vehicle Administration Center request for permit Moderate Moderate Moderate
Indicates company and individual vehicle permitting information, which is competitive commercial data. Observation of this information could provide leverage or business advantage over a particular carrier. If incorrect the CVAC and its user may be misled about the permitting status of a vehicle or carrier, and consquently either penalize or fail to penalize the vehicle or carrier depending on his load, location and permit requirements. MODERATE and not HIGH because the impact is likely to be limited and can likely be easily addressed. If this flow drops out the CVAC operator will be affected and unable to process permitting and issue penalties as appropriate. Could be LOW, depending on the perceived importance of these actions.
Fleet and Freight Management Center Commercial Vehicle Administration Center tax filing High Moderate Low
Contains PII, payment authorization and personal data describing the taxable activities and results of at least an individual, but also potentially a fleet of vehicles. HIGH chosen because the interception of this data could be used for identity or financial theft against this larger group. For small fleets or individual, this might be MODERATE. If this data were corrupted it would probably be resent, so that is of minimal risk. If this data were intercepted and modified, this could prompt legal claims against the originator, which could be serious. However, addressing such an attack should be straightforward. The cost may still be significant (audits, in person meetings). Probably does not need to be sent often.
Fleet and Freight Management Center Fleet-Freight Manager fleet status Moderate High High
Commercial Vehicle Operations human interfaces should not be casually viewable for competitive and physical security reasons. Backoffice operations flows should generally be correct and available as these are the primary interface between operators and system.

Map data intended for general use by any C-ITS component than needs it. No information here includes PII or anything else that, if viewed by someone other than the participant, would lead to harm. Map data is used for a host of application purposes. This widespread use means that any corruption in the data has a widespread and far reaching effect. Occasional outages of this flow will delay updates and lead to a loss of accurate function of some applications. Depending on the application this could be HIGH.
