Why Choose ComplianceForge Cybersecurity Documentation Templates?

ComplianceForge products are editable templates that are designed to address industry-recognized security requirements. These documentation templates are written to address leading security practices, so while there are no "fill in the blanks" sections, the expectation is that you do have to tailor these documents for your specific needs, since only you know the technologies and resources available in your environment. In designing and building our documentation, we have done the heavy lifting for you and provide a solution that is efficient for our clients to finalize and adopt.

Under each product page, you will find product examples and cost savings estimates. The PDF product examples allow you to see the professionalism and level of detail that we provide when creating our products. The cost savings estimates are insightful for the potential time and money savings by purchasing ComplianceForge documentation instead of hiring a consultant to write the documentation or writing the documentation yourself. 

In addition to the individual products, ComplianceForge also provides bundled compliance solutions to help provide a robust, yet efficient and scalable solution:

ComplianceForge sells more than just policies, standards and procedures. Our solutions can help provide additional detail on how a company implements their policies, standards and procedures. Essentially, this can be considered a playbook of how a company operationalizes these compliance concepts (e.g., risk management, vulnerability management, etc.).

How old is your cybersecurity documentation?

Documentation Has a Lifecycle

Our documentation is targeted for a 3-5 year life cycle before a major upgrade is needed. A common rule of thumb is that if your documentation is old enough to attend kindergarten, then it is time to do a thorough review and update to ensure it is applicable for your current needs. We have actually helped companies replace documentation that was old enough to drive, old enough to vote and even old enough to drink! Documentation has a shelf life and your Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team is responsible for ensuring your documentation is sufficient for your current and future needs:

  • Policy Lifecycle. Policy statements are the most static components of the documentation hierarchy, since policies focus on high-level statements of management intent. Policies should be good for 3-5 years without making changes.
  • Standards Lifecycle. Standards are generally static, but change when influenced by a statutory, regulatory or contractual obligation or technology change. Standards can also change when new technologies are introduced. Annual reviews of standards are needed to ensure those are still accurate for your environment, but similar to policies, your standards should be good for a 3-5 year life cycle without making many significant changes.
  • Procedures Lifecycle. Procedures are the most dynamic component of your security documentation. Procedures are influenced by your available people, service providers, processes and technologies, so you have to expect procedure documentation to be a "living document" where it requires ongoing attention to keep it current.

Why Is ComplianceForge The Best Company For Cybersecurity Documentation?

Determining the most appropriate solution for an organization’s cybersecurity documentation depends heavily on its specific external and internal factors. External factors include statutory, regulatory and contractual obligations, while internal factors include staffing level, the organization’s maturity level and budget. ComplianceForge has a solution for organizations of any size or industry, since our documentation is written according to leading security practices and can scale to meet specific business needs.

ComplianceForge is recognized as a leading provider of high-quality, professional cybersecurity documentation templates. This quality cybersecurity documentation includes editable policies, standards and procedures for organizations needing to efficiently and effectively comply with cybersecurity requirements from NIST 800-171, CMMC, NIST 800-171, NIST 800-53, FedRAMP, ISO 27001, SOC 2 or PCI DSS. ComplianceForge’s cybersecurity documentation is the best for these simple reasons:

  • Quality. You will not find a more comprehensive, professionally written solution for cybersecurity documentation that can cover a wide range of frameworks (NIST, CMMC, ISO, SCF, etc.).
  • Affordability. Our pricing is transparent, where you see the price upfront for each product or bundle. The documentation is priced to be a small fraction of the cost compared to writing it in-house or hiring a consultant.
  • Speed. The ability to buy online and have the documentation the same day enables our clients to hit the ground running.

Editable Policy & Procedures Templates For NIST 800-171 & CMMC Compliance

In cybersecurity compliance matters, it doesn't exist unless it is documented. Meticulous documentation is the unsung hero in ensuring your organization's compliance with NIST 800-171 and readiness for a CMMC assessment. ComplianceForge is an industry-leader in NIST 800-171 & CMMC compliance. We specialize in cybersecurity compliance documentation and our products include the NIST 800-171 and CMMC policies, standards, procedures and POA&M/SSP templates that companies (small, medium and large) need to comply with NIST 800-171 / CMMC. We've been writing NIST 800-171 cybersecurity documentation since 2016 and continue to improve our solitions to help make NIST 800-171 & CMMC compliance as easy and as affordable as possible.

Our NIST 800-171 & CMMC compliance policies, standards and procedures are designed to scale for organizations of any size or level of complexity, so we serve businesses of all sizes, from the Fortune 500 all the way to small and medium businesses. The focus of NIST 800-171 and CMMC is to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) anywhere it is stored, transmitted and processed. NIST 800-171 & CMMC compliance starts with documentation for the very simple fact that when it comes to cybersecurity compliance, if it is not documented then it does not exist. Given that reality, you need to ensure your company has the proper cybersecurity documentation in place:

ComplianceForge sells more than just CMMC policy templates policies, standards and procedures. Our solutions can save hundreds to thousands of hours, as compared to writing comparable documentation yourself or hiring a consultant to write it for you.

What Is Your Upgrade Path For NIST 800-171 R3?

Sooner, rather than later, the US Government's global supply chain will have to transition to NIST 800-171 R3. ComplianceForge provides a free resource for organizations migrating from NIST 800-171 R2 to R3. This guide provides an Assessment Objective (AO)-level analysis to address differences:

  • Over 1/3 are minimal effort (clear, direct mapping)
  • Approximately 1/5 are moderate effort (indirect mapping)
  • Approximately 1/2 are significant effort (no clear mapping or new AOs)
This guide also addresses the logical dependencies that exist from "orphaned AOs" that are not in NIST 800-171A R3, but a requirement to demonstrate evidence of due diligence and due care still exists for specific functions (e.g., maintenance operations, roles & responsibilities, inventories, physical security, etc.).

Premium GRC Content (Secure Controls Framework)

If you use the Secure Controls Framework (SCF), then you will want to buy one of these bundles, since the Digital Security Program (DSP) has 1-1 mapping between the SCF and the DSP. We sell the policies, standards, procedures & more that will compliment the SCF controls that you use! The DSP provides you with SCF-aligned policies, standards, guidelines, metrics, controls and capability maturity criteria. The Cybersecurity Standardized Operating Procedures (CSOP) provides you with SCF-aligned procedures/control activities. These two products alone can save you hundreds of hours of document writing and can help your organization hit the ground running with the SCF.

The Digital Security Program (DSP) is a product we developed for companies that need to comply with multiple requirements, but do not want to be locked into documentation that is formatted to conform with the taxonomy ISO 27002 or NIST 800-53. Essentially, the DSP is a "best in class" approach to security documentation. The DSP metrics come mapped to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF).

Privacy & Data Protection (GDPR, CCPA & more)

NIST SP 800-160 is the "gold standard" for security by design, which is important since: (1) you can have security without privacy, but (2) you cannot have privacy without security. Therefore, secure practices are fundamental to any cybersecurity and privacy program.

Our documentation is designed to address common cybersecurity and privacy needs, so that you can demonstrate compliance with your specific requirements. This may be European Union General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR), California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA) / California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), NIST Privacy Framework, or SOC 2 Privacy Principles. Regardless of the framework, you need to have evidence of how both cybersecurity and privacy principles are designed and implemented. Our privacy bundles are uniquely designed to help you comply with leading privacy practices!

Risk Management Bundles

Identifying and managing risk is a part of business. We work hard to develop products that assist clients with removing the Fear, Uncertainty & Doubt (FUD) factor that clouds many cybersecurity risk management decisions. These products are editable Microsoft Word & Excel templates, so if you can use Microsoft Office products, then you can use these risk management solutions! 

When you "peel back the onion" and prepare for an audit/assessment, there is a need to address "the how" for certain topics, such as risk management. While policies and standards are designed to describe WHY something is required and WHAT needs to be done, many companies fail to create documentation to address HOW the policies and standards are actually implemented. We did the heavy lifting and created several program-level documents to address this need and the Risk Management Program (RMP) is one of those products that can help demonstrate HOW risk management is structured at your organization.
