Implement RMF and Meet FISMA FY2017 Metrics

This event qualifies for 11 PDUs PMI

OMB, DHS, Department of Defense (DoD), Committee of National Security Systems (CNSS), and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have made major advances in improving the security of Federal information technology (IT) systems. They have created new standards, processes, and solutions that are streamlining and automating security and moving us closer to the goal of total near-real-time security awareness. At the end of this seminar attendees will understand how to leverage:

The Presidential Transition's increased emphasis on Cybersecurity
New automated solutions provide by CDM, HBSS and ACAS to support "ongoing authorizations" and meet the FISMA metrics
Modified RMF and CSF processes for effectively and accurately identifying and documenting a system's security needs
Impact of OMB's new Circular No. A-130
System deployment strategies to protect against evolving threats and attacks, like, leveraging authorization boundaries, Security Overlays and Templates, Compensating/Common/Hybrid Controls, "air-gaps" and "connect-and-protect", etc.
Simple planning and management tools, like Cybersecurity Calendar and Cybersecurity Journal
Organization's Sponsors: Authorization Official's, Facilities', Physical, Security's, Human Relations', Operation's, Budget's, and Inspector General's (IG’s) staffs

This course is about how to implement these together to successfully meet your enterprise and systems' security and FISMA FY2017 Metrics.
