Information Security Oversight Office 2017 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

We are announcing an upcoming National Industrial Security Program Policy Advisory Committee (NISPPAC) meeting, in accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act and implementing regulation 41 CFR 101-6.

In accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act and implementing regulations, we announce the following committee meeting.

The Information Security Oversight Office (ISOO) of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), proposes to revise the National Industrial Security Program (NISP) Directive. The NISP safeguards classified information the Federal Government or foreign governments release to contractors, licensees, grantees, and certificate holders. This proposed revision adds provisions incorporating executive branch insider threat policy and minimum standards, identifies the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as new cognizant security agencies (CSAs), and adds responsibilities for all CSAs and non-CSA departments and agencies (to reflect oversight functions that are already detailed for private sector entities in the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual (NISPOM)). The proposed revisions also make other administrative changes to be consistent with recent revisions to the NISPOM and with updated regulatory language and style.
