Study Notes
RMF Process
- The RMF Process consists of 7 sequential steps
- These steps are: Prepare Step, Categorize Step, Select Step, Implement Step, Assess Step, Authorize Step, and Monitor Step
RMF Process Objectives
- The RMF Process aims to provide a disciplined, structured, and flexible process for managing security and privacy risk
- It includes information security categorization, control selection, implementation, and assessment
- It also includes system and common control authorizations, and continuous monitoring
Prepare Step
- The Prepare Step is implemented to make security and privacy risk management processes: Effective, Efficient, and Cost-effective
RMF Development
- The RMF was developed as a result of a partnership between NIST and DOD
- NIST Special Publication 800-137 provides guidance on developing an information security continuous monitoring (ISCM)
