The Pitfalls of Manually Writing SSPs Using Templates
Expensive and Frustrating
Manually writing a 400+ page for your System Security Plan for your ATO package 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.
It's 2023; 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
Manual Methods Are Redundant and Inefficient
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 can lead to errors.
Manual SSPs Are Never Truly Up-to-Date
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.
Slow FedRAMP PMO Reviews
Here we are in 2023, 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 OSCAL - the Open Security Controls Assessment Language. 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. Enter Paramify ...
