NIST, Guideline for Identifying an Information System as a National Security System (Aug. 2003) (NIST Special Publication 800-59) (full-text).

Overview
This document provides guidelines developed in conjunction with the Department of Defense, including the National Security Agency, for identifying an information system as a national security system. The basis for these guidelines is the Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002 (FISMA, Title III, Pub. L. No. 107-347, Dec. 17, 2002), which provides government-wide requirements for information security, superseding the Government Information Security Reform Act and the Computer Security Act of 1987.
