Perform a Gap Assessment and Score Your Company
US Department of Defense (“DoD”) contracts include DFARS clauses that require you to score your company’s compliance with the NIST SP 800-171 standard. To meet these requirements, you must perform a gap assessment using the techniques described in NIST SP 800-171A, as informed by NIST Handbook 162, and then calculate the resulting score using the DoD Assessment Methodology. Scores can range from -203 to 110.
If that sounds confusing to you, you’re not alone. Many contractors struggle with where to start. FutureFeed takes the stress out of this process.
Step one: FutureFeed guides you to your score.
Create a Plan
Companies just getting started with cybersecurity rarely score a perfect 110 score. Any company with a score less than 110 should have one or more Plans of Action and Milestones (“POA&Ms”). These POA&Ms describe how the company plans to achieve the 110 score, and defines time-based milestones for when the score will be achieved.
Step Two: FutureFeed automatically creates your POA&Ms and helps you manage them.
Report Your Results
You must submit the scores, along with other information, to DoD via the Supplier Performance Risk System (“SPRS”). Your SPRS score allows procurement officers and prime contractors to compare your cyber posture to competitors.
Step Three: FutureFeed puts the information you need for SPRS at your fingertips, and updates it automatically.
How does FutureFeed Help Your Company?
Attain: FutureFeed Helps you Get Compliance Right the First Time.
FutureFeed is the step-by-step tool for completing your NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC cybersecurity compliance requirements. Our intuitive user interface and carefully designed questions streamline the hardest parts of any compliance program: data collection and decision making. Simply enter your company information by answering questions based on the NIST SP 800-171 standards, and FutureFeed will automatically generate your gap assessment and SPRS score.
FutureFeed focuses on efficiency and security. Enter your company data once, and FutureFeed securely stores it for you and populates that information in other places throughout the tool. As the information changes, such as by implementing IT technology changes or improving your cyber posture, you simply update the corresponding information once in FutureFeed. FutureFeed then automatically updates your SPRS score and our other numerous reports. This lets your team focus on getting things done, rather than creating and maintaining reports.
