The NRC is an agency with the foresight to fund a comprehensive program – 
 we try to think, plan, and fund ahead.

Professional Security Staff that has ownership for the program.
During the audit, our SITSO and two security team members were dedicated full time to FISMA.

CIO’s office provided staff support.
Dan Galik, SITSO, was an outstanding senior security officer.
He was given a budget with which to work.

FISMA provided us a good general framework.
NIST created a questionnaire which NRC tailored to suit its needs/situation.
NRC followed rigorous security guidelines in creating a certification inventory and pursuing such issues as patch management.

We are actively working FISMA and Project Matrix as a Clinger Cohen organization.

The Association of Computing Machinery originated the idea of Computer Security Awareness Day around 20 years ago.  The NRC has been hosting one annually for more than ten years.

GUAVA is used at our internet and e-mail entrance point to cut down on the amount of SPAM received by our employees.
GUAM is an added SPAM filter which will be on all employees’ desks in the near future to allow individualization of SPAM filtration.

An anti-virus tool is located at our internet/e-mail gateway and kept robust.
An anti-virus tool is also placed on every desktop computer to protect against viruses carried by floppy disks or other magnetic media and to double check the gateway tool.
Everything coming into or going out of the agency is checked.

ADAMS is our premier document management system working toward reduction in paper-based documents and providing a safe repository for storage and quick retrieval, as needed.  Stored documents are considered Official Agency Records.

Backing up data is every employee’s responsibility.  If it is stored on our network drives, they are backed-up by our data center and stored off-site.  If stored on a desktop hard drive, it is the user’s responsibility
