CMMC & NIST 800-171 Compliance Software | Readiness Assessment Tools

Organizations working with Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) must comply with the NIST SP 800-171 framework to protect sensitive data. NIST 800-171 Compliance Software and Readiness Assessment Tools are designed to help organizations evaluate, implement, and maintain the necessary security controls to meet these requirements efficiently.

Key Features of NIST 800-171 Compliance Software:

• Readiness Assessments: Assess your organization’s compliance against the 14 control families and 110 security requirements of NIST 800-171 to identify gaps and areas needing improvement.
• Control Implementation Tracking: Manage the implementation and status of each security control, ensuring compliance is achieved and maintained.
• Policy and Procedure Management: Develop and manage policies that align with NIST 800-171 standards, supporting a structured approach to data security.
• Automated Compliance Workflows: Simplify compliance activities, including document management, evidence collection, and audit preparation through automated processes.
• Risk Management Integration: Identify and address risks related to NIST 800-171 requirements, incorporating risk assessments and mitigation strategies into your compliance plan.
• Continuous Monitoring & Reporting: Provide ongoing tracking and detailed reports on compliance status to ensure that the organization continuously meets NIST 800-171 standards.

Governance, Risk and Compliance Platforms

Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) allows the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) to meet cybersecurity regulations while achieving mission objectives. GRC platforms help DIB organizations reduce cyber risk, combat threats and securely share information in order to align themselves with the requirements of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC).

Alongside our vendor partners, Carahsoft helps agencies obtain GRC technologies that operate within the CMMC framework. Discover how our solution providers help Defense organizations protect national security interests and achieve compliance with risk assessment and mitigation tools.

How Readiness Assessment Tools Support NIST 800-171 Compliance:

• Gap Analysis: Conduct a thorough gap analysis to identify missing or deficient controls and understand where your organization falls short of NIST 800-171 requirements.
• Control Scoring & Compliance Mapping: Assign scores based on the effectiveness of existing controls and map compliance progress to NIST 800-171 control families.
• System Security Plan (SSP) Creation: Generate and update a comprehensive System Security Plan (SSP) that documents the implementation and status of each control.
• Plan of Action & Milestones (POA&M): Develop a clear Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M) to address identified gaps, prioritize remediation tasks, and track compliance progress.
• Evidence Management: Efficiently collect, manage, and store compliance evidence, making it easy to demonstrate compliance during audits or reviews.

With NIST 800-171 Compliance Software and Readiness Assessment Tools, organizations can streamline their compliance journey, ensuring that they effectively implement security controls, protect CUI, and maintain continuous compliance with federal regulations.
