 Federal Information Processing Standards Publications (FIPS PUBS) |
With the passage of the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) of 2002, there is no longer a statutory provision to allow for agencies to waive mandatory Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS). The waiver provision had been included in the Computer Security Act of 1987; however, FISMA supercedes that Act. Therefore, the references to the "waiver process" contained in many of the FIPS listed below are no longer operative. Note, however, that not all FIPS are mandatory; consult the applicability section of each FIPS for details. FIPS do not apply to national security systems (as defined in FISMA).
