If Federal cybersecurity mandate compliance is a journey, NIST SP800-53 is oddly your roadmap and your destination. It seems regardless of which mandate or framework you begin with; they all point there. If FISMA Compliance is your goal, then you are directed to the Cybersecurity Framework, which is built upon controls from NIST SP800-53. If compliance with FIPS 200 is where you’d like to land, better check out NIST SP800-53 to implement the low, moderate or high impact controls for your specific environment. Even our non-federal information systems, like state and local governments or universities, handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) get a trip guide from NIST SP800-53 by way of NIST SP80-171!
With these winding roads leading to the same place what do you do once you get there? With NIST SP80-53 topping out at 462 pages, and those mandate and framework entry points being hundreds more pages of guidance, how will you know if the vendors your taking this trip with can actually help you achieve those controls? A few pages of collateral certainly won’t answer those questions.
