The increasing dependency of institutions on IT and the need to avoid consequences of IT failure, compromised information security and customer relationships are leading organizations to seek the assistance of WCS which is geared to:

• Utilize FISMA (Federal Information Security Management) and NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) guidelines to direct government agencies and departments through the Security Certification and Accreditation Process
• Optimize investments in IT to transform company capabilities and achieve greater business value from IT
• Integrate security into the system development life cycle
• Provide assistance and support in dealing with federal regulatory enforcement actions and remediation exercises
• Guide business redesign processes and introducing change management techniques
• Manage and mitigate risks to information and information systems

Many federal agencies are required to certify their systems in accordance with the Defense Information Technology Security Certification and Accreditation Process (DITSCAP) or National Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (NIACAP).

Additionally, the government (Title III of the E-Government Act, Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA)), requires each federal agency to develop, document, and implement an agency-wide information security program to provide information security for information and the information systems that support the operations and assets of the agency, including those provided or managed by another agency, contractor, or other source.

WCS can and has, effectively and efficiently, delivered services to federal government agencies. WCS offers a number of turn-key solutions for information security, information technology and compliance under the General Services Administration (GSA) Federal Supply Service.
