Government Regulation Overview
Legislation has been issued to reduce privacy and security risks associated with the sensitive information. The Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), in particular, defines security standards for most federal agencies. The National Industrial Security Protection Operating Manual (NISPOM), developed by the Department of Defense, sets comprehensive standards for government contractors to protect classified information. The Department of Defense has also issued DoD Instruction 8100.2 to protect DoD computer networks from the security vulnerabilities introduced via wireless networks. Additionally, the Director of Central Intelligence Directive 6/3 (DCID 6/3) provides guidance and requirements for the protection of intelligence information. This directive applies to all U.S. government agencies and their commercial contractors processing intelligence information. At their core, these regulations share the same goals: to protect sensitive information assets, detect, and possibly prevent, potential security breaches, and respond and contain incidents. Each regulation details a requirement for routine auditing of sensitive information systems to identify security threats.
