Train. Implement. Secure. Demonstrate.
Comprehensive Training for Federal Security Control Implementation and Assessment
IntelComp’s NIST SP 800-53 Compliance Training equips federal contractors, agencies, and security teams with practical knowledge to implement, manage, and assess security and privacy controls in line with the NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 framework. Led by IntelComp Verified Compliance Trainers and Risk Management Framework (RMF) specialists, our training prepares your team to meet the rigorous standards of FISMA, FedRAMP, and agency-specific cybersecurity mandates — building audit-ready systems that align with federal expectations.
Why NIST SP 800-53 Training Matters
-
With hundreds of complex security and privacy controls across multiple baselines, understanding NIST SP 800-53 is essential for proper system security planning, assessment, and authorization. Untrained teams risk gaps in implementation, ineffective documentation, and failed audits.
IntelComp’s training ensures your team can:
-
• Interpret and implement relevant control families
• Conduct control assessments and produce audit-ready artifacts
• Align with RMF steps and FedRAMP Moderate/High requirements
• Maintain system security plans (SSPs), POA&Ms, and continuous monitoring
• Support agency ATO (Authorization to Operate) processes
- • Interpret and implement relevant control families • Conduct control assessments and produce audit-ready artifacts • Align with RMF steps and FedRAMP Moderate/High requirements • Maintain system security plans (SSPs), POA&Ms, and continuous monitoring • Support agency ATO (Authorization to Operate) processes
