This publication has been developed by NIST to further its statutory responsibilities under the Federal
Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA) of 2014, 44 U.S.C. § 3551 et seq. , Public Law (P.L.) 113 -
283. NIST is responsible for developing information security standards and guidelines, including minimum
requirements for federal information systems. Such information security standards and guidelines shall
not apply to national security systems without the express approval of the appropriate federal officials exercising policy authority over such systems. This guidelin e is consistent with the requirements of the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A -130.
Nothing in this publication should be taken to contradict the standards and guidelines made mandatory
and binding on federal agencies by the Secretary of Commerce under statutory authority. Nor should these guidelines be interpreted as altering or superseding the existing authorities of the Secretary of
Commerce, OMB Director, or any other federal official. This publication may be used by nongovernmental
organ izations on a voluntary basis and is not subject to copyright in the United States. Attribution would,
however, be appreciated by NIST.
