In 1993, the NASA Incident Response Center (NASIRC) was created to assist NASA in complying with OMB Circular A-130, the Computer Security Act of 1987, and a range of other Federal policies, laws, and regulations pertaining to unclassified and classified information technology security. NASIRC provided security management, analysis, and technical support for an agencywide computer network systems incident response and coordination capability. In turn, the NASIRC provides incident information to the Federal Computer Incident Response Center (FedCIRC), which is responsible for coordinating incident responses for gederal and civilian agencies.
