Organizations are looking to improve information security and strengthen risk management processes. A critical resource in that effort is the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Risk Management Framework (RMF).

NIST RMF provides a more uniform and consistent way to manage the risk to agencies.

Kratos helps federal agencies implement effective cybersecurity risk management by leveraging the NIST RMF framework. Kratos’ approach creates synergies within the organization, which eliminates redundancy, increases efficiency, and results in a risk management program that is tightly integrated across all elements of the organization.

Along with our experience in areas such as penetration testing, our NIST background supports a cybersecurity program that delivers true cyber risk management. Kratos goes beyond Certification & Accreditation (C&A)/Security Assessment & Authorization (SA&A) packages to address real security issues.

Benefits of our NIST services

• Implement a more unified information security program by aligning it with an organization’s enterprise architecture
• Facilitate a holistic approach to risk management by tightly integrating information security into an organization
• Increase efficiency through Information Assurance (IA) control inheritance and re-use
• Integrate IA implementation and authorization activities into system development life cycle (SDLC) processes
