Data Security Through FISMA Compliance
Challenge
-
Do you know where all of your agency's assets are and how they are used?
-
Do you have any missing assets?
-
Are your data security systems in compliance? How often are they checked?
-
What was your agency's FISMA score last year? What will it be this year?
FISMA’s mandated compliance along with its publicly accessible report card can place substantial pressures on your IT department. A poor FISMA grade can be an indication of security vulnerability and poor hardware and software inventory tracking. Providing the correct level of public access to information while maintaining proper data security is like walking a tightrope. Other security compliance products may offer various individual tracking capabilities, but they often lack the ability to provide a cohesive reporting structure.
