For those of you who do research with the Veterans Administration,
have
any of you been able to gather specific requirements for the very
recent
requirements to comply with FISMA? As some of you may know, we have
been
given requirements, and not much time to become compliant!

I have some reference documents:
http://www.research.va.gov/resources/policies/docs/PI-Certification.pdf

and http://csrc.nist.gov/policies/FISMA-final.pdf, and
http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-37/SP800-37-final.pdf.

If some of you are interested, this might be something that we could
organize an audio telecon around.
