Risk Management Framework (RMF) is designed to “provide a process that integrates security and risk management activities into the system development life cycle.” At a high level, RMF is supposed to provide the following to CIOs, Warfighters, System Owners and Developers:
- Efficient enterprise management of cyber assets
- Potential cost savings
- More rapid deployment of solutions
- More efficient and effective delivery of services
- Standardized cyber requirements and validation procedures
The above was a worthy goal that did not account for contractors who would support and execute the RMF transition. In truth, RMF has become a budget black hole and a schedule nightmare. Whenever a new process or standard is developed, the first goal most contractors have is identify how to financially benefit from the change. I-Assure does not subscribe to this method.
We were here for the DITSCAP to DIACAP transition and led the way by developing tools and artifacts, made freely available to the community, to lessen the financial and schedule burden to the Government. We are here today to do the same thing for the DIACAP to RMF transition. Once again, we are leading the transition by providing free tools and artifacts to lessen the RMF burden.
Our RMF services are built on two key tenants:
- Risk Management Framework (RMF) should support, not drive, the Mission
- Firm-Fixed-Price contracting protects the Government and forces the Contractor to deliver
Our philosophy has enabled us to deliver cost-effective and secure solutions for over twelve years.
