What is the role of the RMF TAG?

The role of the Risk Management Framework Technical Advisory Group (RMF TAG) is primarily to oversee the implementation of the Risk Management Framework (RMF) processes. This group is responsible for ensuring that the RMF is applied correctly and consistently across projects and systems within an organization. They provide guidance and support on how to implement risk management practices effectively and help ensure compliance with necessary policies and standards.

This oversight includes monitoring and advising on risk assessments, security controls, and the overall management of cybersecurity risks. By facilitating proper implementation of the RMF, the TAG helps to safeguard organizational assets and information through systematic risk management.

The other roles mentioned, such as enhancing user training, managing incident response, and developing IT policies, are important in their own right but do not directly pertain to the specific responsibilities outlined for the RMF TAG. User training and incident response involve different aspects of IT security and operations, while developing IT policies would generally fall under a different governance or policy-making body within the organization rather than the RMF TAG's focus on risk management oversight.
