Using templates to manually write your system security plan (SSP) for FedRAMP, StateRAMP, TX-RAMP or CMMC is a soul-sucking, time-consuming, and obscenely expensive process that leads to inaccurate, quickly outdated documents and missed deadlines.
We've helped many companies ditch spreadsheets and SSP templates to automate and improve their SSP and ATO packages.
Here we’ll explain you the easy way for you to automate your SSP so you can beat deadlines, save money, and spend your energy on what matters – truly improving your security program.
Manually writing hundreds of pages of compliance documentation is not only boring, but also very expensive. The costs can go well over $150,000.
Do you really want to spend hundreds of hours filling out documents and spreadsheets? And those frequent Word crashes during team collaborations sure hurt morale and productivity.
There must be a smarter, more accurate and efficient way to tackle this colossal task.
"We spend a majority of our time filling out spreadsheets and generating control language. There’s gotta be a better way to do this. There is no reason we should be using spreadsheets to fill out templates." FedRAMP Security Consultant
Security systems constantly evolve. By the time you’ve documented your controls, changes have already occurred.
The changes will affect many controls, sometimes dozens, so updating them by hand takes time and leads to errors.
Systems change frequently, making your freshly-minted SSP obsolete almost immediately.
Updating these documents by hand takes a lot of time. It's hard to keep them up to date, and it's inefficient and risky.
Here we are in the 2020s, and it's astonishing that most of us manage our SSPs using DOCX files and Google Forms, some of which can stretch beyond 900 pages.
These antiquated methods are notorious for causing computer crashes and slow loading times.
The aftermath?
Lengthy wait times when submitting these documents for FedRAMP PMO reviews.
All is not bleak. Thanks to the pioneering team at NIST, we have the Open Security Controls Assessment Language (OSCAL). This transformative approach promises a brighter, more efficient future.
However, there is a problem. Using OSCAL can be difficult if you don't have expert talent with bandwidth, expertise, and engineering skills in-house.
