FISMA

FISMA

The Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) establishes core cybersecurity requirements for federal agencies and contractors handling government data. Designed to strengthen cybersecurity, this framework provides a series of structured protocols for managing risks, keeping data secure, and monitoring systems. Organizations that work with federal agencies must comply with FISMA to safeguard sensitive information and maintain future eligibility for government contracts.

Key Benefits of FISMA Compliance

Meeting FISMA standards improves an organization’s security posture, reduces possible risk, and creates new opportunities for working with federal agencies.

Enhanced Data Security

FISMA requires organizations to implement structured security controls that protect information from cyber threats, unauthorized access, and data breaches.

Federal Contract Eligibility

Government agencies and contractors must comply with FISMA regulations, making compliance essential for organizations looking to secure federal contracts.

Improved Risk Management

A structured risk management approach helps organizations identify security gaps, strengthen defenses, and develop long-term strategies for protecting sensitive data.

FISMA Compliance Requirements

Organizations must take deliberate steps, including risk assessments and security audits, to comply with FISMA and maintain their certification.

Information System Inventory

An updated inventory of all information systems provides visibility into assets that require protection under FISMA guidelines.

Risk Categorization

Classifying data and systems based on sensitivity and impact helps determine the level of security controls required for compliance.

System Security Plan

Having a documented security plan that clearly outlines all policies, processes, procedures, and controls designed to protect information and mitigate risks.

Security Controls

Organizations must implement security measures that align with NIST guidelines to prevent unauthorized access, data loss, and cyber threats.

Risk Assessments

Ongoing risk assessments identify weaknesses and provide recommendations for strengthening security measures before threats can be exploited.

Certification and Accreditation

Independent reviews validate compliance efforts, confirming that an organization meets FISMA requirements before working with government agencies.

FISMA Compliance Best Practices

Taking a more proactive approach toward compliance simplifies your efforts and reduces potential security risks.

  • Classify information as it’s created to establish core security requirements based on data sensitivity and all regulatory expectations.
  • Automatically encrypt sensitive data to protect essential information from any unauthorized access and possible data breaches.
  • Perform regular security assessments to evaluate vulnerabilities, adjust security controls, and improve risk mitigation strategies.
  • Stay current with any changes to the FISMA standards by monitoring updates from NIST and federal agencies to maintain compliance over time.
