About CISQ
The Consortium for Information & Software Quality (CISQ) was founded by the Object Management Group, a technology standards organization, and the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) at Carnegie Mellon University, a Federally Funded Research and Development Center, to develop standards for automating the measurement of software. CISQ has delivered code quality standards that are now “acquisition-ready” for managing the security, reliability, performance efficiency, and maintainability of software.
