A COMPREHENSIVE, FLEXIBLE, RISK-BASED APPROACH

The Risk Management Framework provides a process that integrates security, privacy, and cyber supply chain risk management activities into the system development life cycle. The risk-based approach to control selection and specification considers effectiveness, efficiency, and constraints due to applicable laws, directives, Executive Orders, policies, standards, or regulations. Managing organizational risk is paramount to effective information security and privacy programs; the RMF approach can be applied to any type of new or legacy systems, and any type of technology, service, or application (e.g., IoT, ICS-SCADA, Cloud, code), and within any type of organization regardless of size or sector.

LP3 provides the necessary subject matter experts to implement each of the 6 RMF steps:

LP3 provides the essential activities to prepare the organization to manage security and privacy risks.  We categorize the system and information processed, stored, and transmitted based on an impact analysis. Provide the necessary expertise to select the set of NIST SP 800-53 controls to protect the system based on risk assessment(s).

LP3 RMF Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) will provide:

• Complete documentation (as needed, including POA&Ms, & SSPs)
• Incorporate applicable Risk Management Framework NIST SP 800-53 controls
• Artifact creation & testing
• eMASS uploads
• Engineering Scans
• Vulnerability assessments
• Vulnerability scans and configuration
• Reporting tool to support your continuous monitoring requirements
• Track data transfers across your cd and flash drive (Link to DTA page)
• Environment & Network Buildouts
• SIPRNet and NIPRNet build-outs
• Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) evaluations, in-depth Application Security assessments, and System Hardening

RMF RESULTS IN AN AUTHORITY TO OPERATE (ATO)

An Authority to Operate (ATO) is the end product of the RMF process.  It is an official management decision, a formal declaration by a organizational Authorizing Official (AO) that sanctions the operation of a Business Product and explicitly accepts the risk to agency organizational operations, organizational assets, individuals, other organizations, and the Nation based on the implementation of an agreed-upon set of security controls.

LP3 SMEs will help you find a cost-effective plan to engineer your software, architectures, cloud migrations, and tools to aid in developing secured systems. We maximize and enhance your cybersecurity across your entire organization by effectively leveraging your existing assets and licenses.
