NetSec to ease compliance

NetSec Inc. this month announced a service to help agencies meet the requirements of the Federal Information Security Management Act.

The Herndon, Va., company provides managed security services to nine Cabinet agencies. The new FISMA Enterprise Tracking and Reporting service (FISMA ETR) makes information already managed by other NetSec services available to reporting tools, said President Ken Ammon.

The service creates a workflow across an enterprise for stovepipe data repositories and reporting tools. FISMA requires tracking progress in certifying and accrediting systems, and reporting on plans of action and milestones for correcting security weaknesses.

FISMA ETR automates these processes, Ammon said.
