Buyers are encouraged to research “SCAP compatible” products and services thoroughly before investing in them. Note that not all products have fully implemented every SCAP standard. See the SCAP website on NVD for information on SCAP for lists of validated products. Now that the standard is in force, neither SCAP-Compliant nor SCAP-Compatible will meet FISMA requirements; instead, the product must be NIST validated for the components and capabilities that you need.
