Second Solicitation of Comments on Proposed Federal Information Processing Standard for Standard Security Label for the Government Open Systems Interconnection Profile

概要

The purpose of this notice is to announce the revised proposed Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) for Standard Security Label for the Government Open Systems Interconnection Profile. This proposed FIPS was originally announced in the Federal Register (57 FR 37948) on August 21, 1992. NIST received comments from 28 government and industry organizations in response to the first notice on the proposed FIPS for Standard Security Label for the Government Open Systems Interconnection Profile.

NIST solicits views from the public, manufacturers, and Federal, State and local government users on this revised proposed standard prior to submission to the Secretary of Commerce for review a
