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.
Architecture Review
Enterprise Architecture (EA) provides the blueprint for how technology, people, processes, and information combine to deliver current and planned business capabilities. Effective architecture governance reduces support costs and enables IT to be more responsive to business needs. Watershed Security provides validation and review services for your EA program. Our consultants are able to validate your EA components to ensure that what you have planned will result in the smooth and efficient implementation of systems within your enterprise, as well as full accountability for service operations throughout the SDLC of your program
