SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS – May 20, 2005. SecureInfo Corporation, a recognized leader in delivering information assurance solutions to the government, announced today that its Risk Management System™ (RMS™) software solution now contains the new version 6.1 of the Department of Defense (DoD) Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (DIACAP). DIACAP will replace the previous standard, DITSCAP (Defense Information Technology Security Certification and Accreditation Process) across all branches, services, combatant commands and agencies in the DoD.
DIACAP establishes the standard DoD process for identifying, implementing, and validating IA Controls, for authorizing the operation of DoD information systems, and for managing IA posture across DoD information systems consistent with Title III of the E-Government Act, the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) and DoD Directive 8500.1. All DoD systems will be required to transition to DIACAP.
Steve Kiser, SecureInfo’s President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our expertise in supporting Government organizations with all phases of the C&A process – together with RMS’s powerful compliance architecture - allows our team to respond quickly to support newly mandated regulatory standards like DIACAP. We are committed to serving the information security needs of our customers and ensuring we keep pace with the solutions they need.”
SecureInfo’s RMS software solution integrates the industry’s most comprehensive set of information security compliance requirements and test plans with a workflow tool tailored for the risk assessment process. It empowers organizations to centrally manage their information security risk and demonstrate compliance with many of today’s most challenging regulations, including DITSCAP (DIACAP), NIST, DoDIIS, HIPAA, GLBA and Sarbanes Oxley.
As regulations migrate from draft to published documents, SecureInfo’s Certification and Accreditation experts follow a detailed and structured process that allows them to break down regulations into security domains and categories and then create new action-oriented requirements that are associated with existing or new test procedures. These new requirements are then delivered to our customers through SecureInfo’s compliance content maintenance plan. These content updates allow users to focus on performing C&A activities without worrying about how to keep their regulatory content up to-date, ensuring a standardized, current C&A requirements baseline, built on a consistent, repeatable C&A process.
