This should be hidden

Watershed’s consultants provide the essential expertise to properly execute the RMF Authorize step to enable organizations to determination the risk in Cloud systems, on premise systems, military weapons and navigation systems as well as Building Control Systems (BCS). Our engineering assess the risk and provide actionable data to determine to authorize (or not) a system to operate.

We determine the security and privacy posture of that system, as well as the risk from the operation and use of the system. This risk is determined using the authorizing official review and analysis of the information and materials in the authorization package, as well as organizational-level and system-level risk information provided by senior officials (e.g., senior agency information security officer, senior agency official for privacy, risk executive), control assessors, system owners, and other stakeholders to the authorizing official.

If necessary, further discussions between the authorizing official and those furnishing the information may take place to help the authorizing official fully understand the risks. During risk analysis and determination, the authorizing official also takes into consideration organizational risk tolerance, dependencies among systems and controls, mission and business requirements, criticality of the mission or business functions supported by the system, and the overall risk management strategy of the organization.
