It is important to understand that there is no officially-sanctioned format for a System Security Plan (SSP) to meet NIST 800-171 compliance requirements. It can stand alone or be paired with other specialized products we offer. The SSP can serve as a key element in your organization's cybersecurity program. Specifically, the SSP template covers all Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Non-Federal Organization (NFO) controls that are listed in Appendices D and E of NIST 800-171. The SSP is meant to be a "living document" that captures pertinent information on the controls implementation for NIST 800-171. NIST 800-171 System Security Plan (SSP) Template Even when you bring in a consultant, this also requires involvement from your internal team for quality control and answering questions, so the impact is not limited to just the consultant's time being consumed. In addition to the immense cost of hiring a cybersecurity consultant at $300/hr+ to write this documentation for you, the time to schedule a consultant, provide guidance and get the deliverable product can take months. The process of writing cybersecurity documentation can take an internal team many months and it involves pulling your most senior and experienced cybersecurity experts away from operational duties to assist in the process, which is generally not the most efficient use of their time.

We process most orders the same business day so you can potentially start working with the SSP the same day you place your order.

The SSP is approximately 6% of the cost for a consultant or 13% of the cost of your internal staff to generate equivalent documentation.

This is about 1-2 months of development time for a contractor to provide you with the deliverable.

If you hire a consultant to generate this documentation, it would take them an estimated 45 consultant work hours, which equates to a cost of approximately $13,500.

This is about 2-3 months of development time where your staff would be diverted from other work.

For your internal staff to generate comparable documentation, it would take them an estimated 80 internal staff work hours, which equates to a cost of approximately $6,000 in staff-related expenses.

Purchasing the SSP from ComplianceForge offers these fundamental advantages when compared to the other options for obtaining quality cybersecurity documentation: Whereas, compared to writing your own documentation, you can potentially save hundreds of work hours and the associated cost of lost productivity. Compared to hiring a consultant, you can save months of wait time and tens of thousands of dollars. When you look at the costs associated with either (1) hiring an external consultant to write cybersecurity documentation for you or (2) tasking your internal staff to write it, the cost comparisons paint a clear picture that buying from ComplianceForge is the logical option. The SSP is meant to be a "living document" that addresses the who, what, why, when, where, who and how of a security program.Ĭost Savings Estimate - NIST 800-171 System Security Plan (SSP)

The SSP is based on existing formats that are used for FedRAMP, but is designed specifically for NIST 800-171 to document the controls affecting your Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Non-Federal Organization (NFO) controls.
