5. What is HIPAA
3
• HIPAA is the acronym for the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act that was

insurance coverage for millions of American workers and
their families when they change or lose their jobs;
› Reduces health care fraud and abuse;
› Mandates industry-wide standards for health care
information on electronic billing and other processes; and
› Requires the protection and confidential handling of
protected health information

6. What is FERC/NERC
4
• Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)
› The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is the United
States federal agency with jurisdiction over interstate electricity
sales, wholesale electric rates, hydroelectric licensing, natural
gas pricing, and oil pipeline rates.
• North American Electric Reliability Corporation
(NERC):
› The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) is a
not-for-profit international regulatory authority whose mission
is to ensure the reliability of the bulk power system in North
America.
• Critical Infrastructure Protection Standards
› Standards for cyber security protection

7. What is EI3PA?
Experian Security Audit Requirements:
• Experian is one of the three major consumer
credit bureaus in the United States
• Guidelines for securely processing, storing, or
transmitting Experian Provided Data
• Established by Experian to protect consumer
data/credit history data provided by them

8. What is ISO 27001/ISO 27002
ISO Standard:
• ISO 27001 is the management framework for
implementing information security within an
organization
• ISO 27002 are the detailed controls from an
implementation perspective
6

9. What is FISMA
7
• Federal Information Security Management Act
(FISMA) of 2002
› Requires federal agencies to implement a mandatory set of
processes, security controls and information security
governance
• FISMA objectives:
› Align security protections with risk and impact
› Establish accountability and performance measures
› Empower executives to make informed risk decisions
