The purpose of the National Institute of Standards and Technology
Special Publication 800-128, Guide for Security-Focused
Configuration Management of Information Systems, is to provide
guidelines for organizations responsible for managing and
administering the security of federal information systems and
associated environments of operation. Configuration management
concepts and principles described in NIST SP 800-128, provide
supporting information for NIST SP 800-53, Recommended Security
Controls for Federal Information Systems and Organizations. NIST SP
800-128 assumes that information security is an integral part of an
organization's overall configuration management. The focus of this
document is on implementation of the information system security
aspects of configuration management, and as such the term
security-focused configuration management (SecCM) is used to
emphasize the concentration on information security. In addition to
the fundamental concepts associated with SecCM, the process of
applying SecCM practices to information systems is described. The
goal of SecCM activities is to manage and monitor the
configurations of information systems to achieve adequate security
and minimize organizational risk while supporting the desired
business functionality and services.
