Information Technology Management: Management of Information Technology Resources Within DoD
Abstract
Federal Information Security Management Act. The E-Government Act of 2002, Public Law 107-347, title III, Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), requires Federal agencies to develop, document, and implement an agencywide information security program and report annually to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the Congress on the adequacy and effectiveness of information security policies, procedures, and practices. FISMA requires that each agency develop and maintain an inventory of its major information systems to support information resource management (resource management). Resource management is the way in which an agency manages its information resources, including information and related resources such as personnel, equipment, funds, and information technology (IT), to achieve the agency's mission. FISMA also cites specific resource management actions in existing legislation that include: inventorying information resources, planning, budgeting, acquiring, and managing IT, and monitoring, testing, and evaluating information security controls.
