SecureInfo RMS addresses the C&A requirements within the Department of Defense, Intelligence Community and Civilian Agencies. Additionally, RMS supports the new Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP) initiative published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) by providing a framework to integrate a much broader set of technologies, including continuous monitoring solutions.

"SecureInfo RMS is a key component of NASA's information security program. It allows us to rapidly apply and enforce our information security policy across the entire NASA enterprise in a highly cost effective fashion. We welcome the new features introduced with RMS 5.0 and look forward to applying these new capabilities." said Jerry Davis, CISO for NASA.

RMS 5.0 introduces key features and benefits that enable Federal organizations to reduce C&A costs, standardize C&A programs and provide ready access to consistent, quality C&A packages for reporting and management. These features and benefits include
