NIST SP 800 Assessment & Consultancy
Control-level assessment against the NIST 800-series, not a maturity score.
In plain terms
The NIST Special Publication 800-series is the control detail behind the Cybersecurity Framework. SP 800-53 is the catalogue of security and privacy controls; SP 800-171 covers protecting controlled unclassified information in non-federal systems and is what flows down through US federal supply chains; SP 800-53A defines how to actually assess them; SP 800-37 is the Risk Management Framework that ties it together. Where CSF gives you a maturity conversation for the board, the 800-series gives you a control-by-control determination — satisfied, other than satisfied — with the assessment evidence to back it.
What you get
- Baseline selection and tailoring — low, moderate or high, with tailoring decisions documented
- Control-by-control assessment following the SP 800-53A method
- System Security Plan and Plan of Action & Milestones in the expected structure
- Mapping to what you already run, so ISO 27001 or CSF work is reused rather than repeated
- Assessment evidence organised so a third-party assessor can follow it
Who it is for
Organisations in US federal supply chains, contractors facing SP 800-171 flow-down clauses, and security teams that want control-level rigour rather than a maturity number.
