What is the main objective of NIST SP 800-53 for U.S. Federal Government systems?

  1. To provide online backup solutions

  2. To manage enterprise data in a private cloud

  3. To ensure security requirements are applied

  4. To offer SaaS solutions

The correct answer is: To ensure security requirements are applied

The main objective of NIST SP 800-53 for U.S. Federal Government systems is to ensure that security requirements are applied effectively. NIST Special Publication 800-53 provides a comprehensive set of security controls that are necessary to protect information systems and data. These security controls help federal agencies in the United States to manage and secure their information systems in a structured and efficient manner. Options A, B, and D are not the main objectives of NIST SP 800-53. Online backup solutions, managing enterprise data in a private cloud, and offering SaaS solutions are not the primary focus of this publication, which is primarily geared towards establishing security requirements and controls for federal government systems.
