What Does Ingalls Offer?
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Risk Management Framework (RMF) is a 7-step process that organizations can use to manage information security and privacy risk for organizations and their systems. All DoD information systems must undergo the RMF process to achieve an Authorization to Operate (ATO).
Navigating the RMF/ATO process is exhaustive, resource-intensive, and often not considered until the system or application is ready to deploy, significantly delaying timely delivery of today’s technology to the warfighter.
Ingalls understands the ATO challenge, so much so that we are also developing CSAR®, our ATO preparation software that will help users be positioned for ATO success. Need help now? Our RMF/ATO support services can help you today. Need help later? CSAR® is perfect.
What Does Ingalls Offer?
Ingalls provides RMF/ATO Support throughout the RMF Lifecycle with a tailored approach for services. Ingalls can provide a wide variety of customizable solutions, programs, and tools.
