Comparison of fips 140 2 and iso iec 19790-2012 standards

Overview – Every organization must consider the mandatory and recommended practices when creating their information security program and/or security policies. Legislative documents such as FISMA are mandatory, yet standards documents such as FIPS 200 can also be mandatory. For this project you will compare and contrast two or more technical standards. You have the option of comparing FIPS 140-2 with ISO: 19790 OR comparing DES with Triple DES with AES. There is no requirement to relate this research to your selected organization. The goal is to understand the standards and be able to identify their similarities and their differences.

 

Learning Objective – After completing this project students will be able to 1) identify at least two technical standards, 2) describe at least two technical standards, and 3) compare and contrast technical standards.

2. If you select FIPS versus ISO, identify three to five points of analysis from the first standard (i.e., FIPS 140-2) that you will compare and contrast against the second standard (i.e., ISO 19790:2012).

 

3. If you selected DES versus Triple DES versus AES, identify three to five points of analysis from the three standards and compare contrast those points against the other standards. For this option you will compare the three standards against one another for each point of analysis.

 

4. Research the security issues related to or solved by the three to five points of analysis.

c) A Points of Analysis section that describes your three to five points and why you selected them (see #2 or #3 above)

 

d) A Compare and Contrast section comparing and contrasting the details of each standard for the three to five points of analysis (see #2 or #3 above)

 

e) A conclusion that summarizes what you wrote
