NIST 800-171

Are you ready?

Within NIST 800-171 there are 14 security requirement families:

  • 3.1 Access Control – 22 Controls
  • 3.2 Awareness & Training – 3 Controls
  • 3.3 Audit & Accountability – 9 Controls
  • 3.4 Configuration Management – 9 Controls
  • 3.5 Identification & Authentication – 11 Controls

  • 3.12 Security Assessment – 4 Controls
  • 3.13 Systems & Comms Protection – 16 Controls
  • 3.14 System & Information Integrity – 7 Controls

Each individual control must be met, and evidence provided to verify it is operational. If a control is not met, then a Plan of Action and Milestones (POAM) must be created and worked to completion so the control is met.
