3.2.6: Guide the Development of the Security and Privacy Profile

OMB will continue to raise the awareness and spur the adoption of security and privacy practices within the Federal government. The FEA PMO will collaborate with the AIC on the continued development of the Security and Privacy Profile (SPP) synthesizing guidance and best practices into a framework suitable for the entire Federal government. The SPP is a planning/assessment methodology (profile) for agencies to incorporate security and privacy requirements and services into their EA development lifecycle. The SPP provides guidance to process owners, managers, and other decision-makers in designing and deploying security and privacy measures to protect the nation’s information resources and ensure citizen’s privacy. The AIC, with the support of the FEA PMO, is currently developing Phase II of the SPP to provide a uniform, repeatable and simplified methodology for consistent application across agencies and lines of business. The FEA PMO will use the FEA models and practices to guide the SPP and provide approval updates and improvements where necessary. This approach will broaden the involvement of the stakeholder community and enable more consistent security management processes and controls across the Federal government.
