NIST SP 800-53 Compliance & Control Mapping

Accelerate authorization and strengthen security with comprehensive NIST 800-53 assessments, 800-53A testing, and RMF package support. We map controls to related frameworks—800-171, CMMC, and CSF 2.0—to streamline compliance across your environments.

  • 800-53A assessment: interviews, examination, testing
  • RMF artifacts & A&A package support
  • Control inheritance & FedRAMP mappings
  • Crosswalks to 800-171, CMMC, CSF 2.0

800-53 Consulting Services

  • Control Implementation & Hardening: AC, AU, CM, IA, IR, MP, PE, PL, PS, RA, SC, SI, etc.
  • 800-53A Assessment: Test procedures, sampling, and evidence collection.
  • RMF Support (SP 800-37): Categorization, selection, implementation, assessment, authorization, monitoring.
  • Control Inheritance: FedRAMP/cloud service mappings and shared responsibility models.
  • Policy & Procedure Development: Program-level and system-level documentation.
  • POA&M Management: Risk-based remediation planning and status reporting.

Control Mapping & Framework Harmonization

Reduce duplicate effort by aligning 800-53 controls with related obligations:

800-53 ↔ 800-171

  • Map derived 171 requirements to 53 controls
  • Identify gaps and compensating controls
  • Artifact reuse strategy

800-53 ↔ CMMC

  • Practice alignment and maturity expectations
  • Assessment prep checklists
  • Evidence cross-reference

800-53 ↔ CSF 2.0

  • Program outcomes & metrics
  • Identify/Protect/Detect/Respond/Recover mapping
  • Continuous improvement

FAQs

What impact level do I need?

We help apply FIPS-199 to determine Low/Moderate/High and tailor controls accordingly.

Can you reuse FedRAMP or cloud controls?

Yes—inheritance reduces duplicative effort when documented with clear responsibilities and evidence.

Do you support ongoing monitoring?

Yes—metrics, scan cadence, and periodic control assessments keep authorization current.
