US Federal Security Compliance Law

What is FISMA?

The Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA) is a U.S. law that requires federal agencies and contractors to implement comprehensive information security programs. It emphasizes risk management, continuous monitoring, and Security Controls.

FISMA aligns closely with frameworks such as NIST SP 800-53 and FedRAMP.

What is FISMA used for?

FISMA is used to ensure that government systems and data are protected against cyber threats. It enforces compliance with security standards and promotes continuous risk management.

Organizations working with federal systems use FISMA to align their Security Posture with regulatory requirements and implement structured Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) practices.
