Has your 3PAO caught a bunch of inaccuracies in your SSP?
Does the thought of one more round of corrections make your skin crawl?
There is a way off the audit, correction, audit, correction merry go round – and you deserve your life back.
Here we’ll share how you can get the most accurate ATO package that you, your 3PAO, and the PMO will all love so you can stop fixing details and start focusing on your security.
The Problem with Manually Written SSPs
If you manually write your SSP you’ll find:
- It's expensive to create and maintain
- It takes many miserable months, or years, to complete
- The final product is full of errors, even with the help of the best GRC pros
And, psssst, your 3PAO is going to catch these inconsistencies in your SSP.
Then they’re going to make you fix them.
Over and over again, until you get it right.
Did you know that most companies’ SSPs are even out of date by the time they make it through review?
Ouch.
Errors are the natural consequence of having a group of humans copying and pasting information throughout hundreds or thousands of pages of documents.
Tracking which controls are where is a mammoth task that wastes time and your org’s resources – all for an inferior result.
Advantages of an Automated SSP & ATO Package
It’s now possible to build an SSP and ATO package that you and your auditor will love.
You can do it using Paramify's Risk Solutions platform.
A Risk Solution is a security capability that maps to many requirements. We keep a library of vetted Risk Solutions that are audited and certified many times over.
You can use these solutions as-is, customize them, or write your own.
Your automatically generated SSP by Paramify is:
1- More accurate and consistent.
2- Easier to create
3- Likely to pass audit quickly

How Long Does Paramify Take to Generate My SSP?
Depending on the size of your SSP you can expect to spend months, even years, creating your ATO package manually.
With Paramify’s automated SSP you can generate your SSP in hours to days.
Especially if you’re nice.
But also hours to days if you’re not that nice. That’s really just how long it takes.

Human Readable & Digital ATO Packages
There are pros and cons to both human-readable and OSCAL-based compliance documentation.
You can enjoy the benefits of both types with Paramify. We provide you a human readable SSP and a digital ATO package at no extra cost.
How Much Does Paramify Cost?
How much your new, automated SSP will cost depends on the impact level of your data and whether or not you need to self-host the application.
If you have low impact data Paramify will cost between $8,500 - $15,500 per year. If your data is moderate to high level impact it will cost from $23,000 - $60,000 per year.
