FISMA Audit Services
The Federal Information Securities Management Act of 2002 (FISMA) was enacted by the U.S. Congress in 2002 to strengthen data security in government. FISMA requires federal agencies to develop, document, and maintain an agency-wide program that ensures adequate cybersecurity personnel, procedures, and systems as well as proper security for physical facilities and equipment. These requirements were built to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of their data and prevent unauthorized access or accidental loss of information from data systems.
