Nobody can deny the importance of protecting governments’ data. The US is the country where government data is targeted the most by hackers. To ensure the protection of the data of its federal agencies and the private contractors working with its federal agencies the US government enacted an act known as the Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA).Through this course the L&D experts at Exoexcellence Consultants have tried to continue their legacy of building and explaining cybersecurity-related matters. After enrolling students will learn various aspects of this act such as the rationale for enacting it comparing FISMA with other cybersecurity frameworks (such as NIST and FedRAMP) and the steps to achieve FISMA compliance.The course also discusses how to perform FISMA audits and provides a detailed discussion of FISMA’s comparison with FedRAMP and FedARAMP compliance. This is for cybersecurity professionals focusing on the legal and regulatory aspects of incident response. By taking it they will get an initial idea of how cybersecurity regulations work at the governmental level.
