FISMA Compliance Auditing & Reporting

Segment: Federal Agencies

The Federal Information Security and Management Act (FISMA) requires federal agencies to provide security for information collected or maintained by or on behalf of the agency; and information systems used or operated by an agency or by a contractor of an agency or other organization on behalf of an agency.

The IT-FISMA Connect

Using ADAudit Plus to ensure Federal Data security is a very thorough and a cost-effective solution. The annual report to congress on the implementation of the Federal Information Security Management Act for the fiscal year 2012 reveals that while the cost of securing information systems increased by one billion dollars, the federal government was less compliant with security standards than they were in 2011.

So how can ADAudit Plus help secure the Nations Security Houses? Being Windows network secure and meeting FISMA compliance is not a big deal, but it is an ongoing process that involves the federal agency to have ADAudit Plus do its job of monitoring the entire Windows Server environment and reporting with email alerts the changes along with periodic reports. Also, there is the FISMA compliance kit within ADAudit Plus to ease the the entire compliance process.
