NARA Sends Industrial Security Program NPRM to OMB

On Friday the OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) announced that it had received a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) from the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) for revisions of the National Industrial Security Program (NISP, 32 CFR 2004). NISP was established by Executive Order 12829.

According to the Spring 2016 Unified Agenda abstract:

“The Information Security Oversight Office (ISOO), a component of NARA, is proposing this rule pursuant to Executive Order 12829, relating to the National Industrial Security Program (NISP). The proposed changes are primarily administrative, bringing together the original 2006 regulation, the 2010 change, and some updated requirements. However, a small portion of the new provisions deal with requirements from Executive Order 13587 [link added] to implement the insider threat program, and could have a potentially significant effect on agencies implementing that program's requirements.”


NISP is a DOD defense industrial base information security program addressing classified information security and thus will have little direct effect on most manufacturing facilities. It could be instructive, however, for possible future regulations on other classified information sharing programs.
