FISMA Compliance with Offline Secure Storage
Meet Federal Information Security Modernization Act requirements by implementing physical isolation controls for sensitive government data.
- Offline by default
- Identity locked access
- Hardware encrypted

32,000+
Federal cyber incidents reported annually
NIST 800-53
Required security control framework
3 Levels
Impact levels: Low, Moderate, High
Federal Security Standards
FISMA requires federal agencies and contractors to implement comprehensive information security programmes based on NIST frameworks.
This is a mapping, not a certification claim. Firevault holds Cyber Essentials Plus. Everything else on this page is stated as alignment: Offline Secure Storage® produces evidence you can point at in your own submission, assessment or audit.
FISMA Requirements
Each line below is something an assessor, regulator or underwriter can ask you to evidence.

How OSS Supports FISMA Compliance
Offline Secure Storage maps directly to NIST 800-53 physical and environmental protection controls.
Physical Protection (PE)
Physical isolation exceeds PE-family control requirements
Access Control (AC)
Identity-verified access with role-based controls
System Protection (SC)
Hardware encryption and boundary protection
Audit (AU)
Complete audit trail for all data access events
Federal Data Protected
The records most often moved into Offline Secure Storage® for this framework.
Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)
Federal contract documentation
Personnel security records
Critical infrastructure data
Procurement and financial records
Inter-agency communications
