NIST extends the comment period for the Initial Public Draft of the Assessment Cases for SP 800-53A to January 30, 2009.
On August 14, 2008 announced the release of the initial public draft (IPD) of exemplary Assessment Cases for the security control assessment procedures described in Appendix F of SP 800-53A Guide for Assessing the Security Controls in Federal Information Systems.
The Assessment Cases were developed by an interagency team to provide information system security assessors with worked examples identifying specific assessor action steps to accomplish for each of the assessment procedures in Special Publication 800-53A. The full suite of draft assessment cases are available at
http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/SMA/fisma/assessment-cases-overview.html .
Public review and comment is an integral part of the development of the Assessment Cases for improving the usefulness and effectiveness of the assessment cases in facilitating the assessment of security controls. Comments on the IPD Assessment Cases should be provided by January 30, 2009 and should be forwarded to the Computer Security Division, Information Technology Laboratory at NIST or submitted via email to: <mailto:
