Evaluate your organization's security and privacy controls across 323 base controls and 20 control families using a 4-point maturity scale — the gold standard for federal information systems.
NIST Special Publication 800-53 Revision 5 is the definitive catalog of security and privacy controls for federal information systems and organizations. It provides a comprehensive set of safeguards to protect operations, assets, individuals, and the nation from a diverse set of threats and risks.
Comprehensive coverage across 20 control families, providing the most thorough assessment of security and privacy controls available for federal systems.
Rate each control from Not Implemented through Fully Implemented, giving you a clear picture of compliance status and areas needing attention.
Required for federal agencies, government contractors, and organizations handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). The backbone of FISMA compliance.
NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 organizes security and privacy controls into 20 families, each addressing a critical area of information security and privacy protection.
Each control is rated on a 4-point maturity scale, providing a clear measurement of your organization's implementation status and a roadmap for achieving full compliance.
The control is not in place. No policies, procedures, or technical measures exist to address this requirement. Significant risk exposure.
The control is partially in place. Some aspects are addressed but implementation is incomplete, inconsistent, or not fully documented.
The control is mostly in place with documented policies and procedures. Minor gaps remain but the control is functioning effectively across the organization.
The control is fully in place, documented, tested, and continuously monitored. Evidence of effectiveness is maintained and the control is regularly reviewed.
Our assessment tool guides you through all 323 base controls with clear descriptions and helps you measure your implementation status across every control family.
Choose the NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 Assessment and configure your target implementation level for each control family.
Navigate through each control family and rate your implementation on a 1-4 scale for all 323 base controls.
