FISMA Compliance
Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA)
Ensure your organization meets federal cybersecurity requirements with COACT’s FISMA compliance services. Protect sensitive data, mitigate risk, demonstrate audit-ready security posture, and remediate vulnerabilities identified during assessments.
Expert Guidance to Navigate FISMA Requirements
Our team navigates the intricacies of FISMA and how organizations comply with those requirements, from the initial stages of the NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF) to continuous monitoring. We tailor our approach to your organization’s mission, ensuring compliance and operational resilience.
What is FISMA?
FISMA requires all U.S. Federal agencies implement security controls and mechanisms to protect Federal information, systems and networks. Agencies are also required to evaluate and report on the effectiveness of controls on a continuous and ongoing basis to support oversight and accountability across the Federal enterprise.
COACT security analysts have proven expertise in helping Federal agencies and contractors operating systems on behalf of the government comply with FISMA requirements. Our FISMA compliance services help organizations implement the NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF) in a practical, beneficial, and compliant manner for Low, Moderate, and High systems.
