Assuring Security of Data Shared by Government, Business
By Eric Chabrow
The National Institute of Standards and Technology is revising a map to link its core security controls, Special Publication 800-53 Rev. 4: Security and Privacy Controls for Federal Information Systems and Organizations, to complementary standards issued by the International Organization for Standardization, known as ISO/IEC 27001.
Such mapping is important because federal agencies conducting business with the private sector – and vice versa – want to assure that the controls they implement to secure IT systems and data and maintain privacy conform with those of their partners.
