We offer the most comprehensive and detailed hands-on training for students who want to gain an understanding of the transition from DIACAP to RMF for DoD IT. Our training is based upon the participation of our subject matter experts in transition working groups and direct experience with other Federal, DoD, and commercial clients. In compliance with the Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA 2014), Federal agencies and the Intelligence Community have already transitioned to the use of the NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF) as the foundation for their assessment and authorization (A&A) processes, formerly known as certification and accreditation (C&A).

DoD is now in the process of establishing the regulatory foundation for its transition to the use of the NIST RMF. This Risk Management Framework for DoD Security Controls Assessors (SCA) will enable your organization to understand the proposed changes and to position, yourself early to make the transition as seamless and efficient as possible.
