In 2002, U.S. Congress enacted into law Title III of the e-Government Act known as the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA). FISMA mandates that every federal agency develop, document and implement an agency-wide program to provide information security for the systems that support the federal government.
A series of special publications dictates that all federal information systems used for and by the federal government are required by law to go through a certification process to validate that the system is compliant with the minimum baseline controls.
