About NIST SP 800-218 (SSDF) Copilot
NIST SP 800-218 (SSDF) v1.1 defines outcome-based practices for mitigating software vulnerabilities across the full development lifecycle, organized into four practice families: PO, PS, PW, and RV. The SSDF Copilot helps software producers and federal contractors interpret those practices, map them to existing controls, and work toward alignment with agency-specific security requirements.
à qui c'est destiné
SOC 2
The SSDF practices are the most direct evidence for SOC 2 software-development criteria â Type 2 auditors increasingly ask for it.
NIST 800-53
The SR (Supply Chain Risk) and SA (System and Services Acquisition) families align directly with SSDF practices.
NIST CSF
CSF's Identify and Protect functions reference SSDF as the canonical secure-development pattern.
Questions fréquemment posées
What is NIST SP 800-218 (SSDF)?
NIST SP 800-218, the Secure Software Development Framework (SSDF) v1.1, is a NIST publication that defines a set of outcome-based practices for reducing the risk of vulnerabilities in software. It organizes guidance into four practice families â Prepare the Organization (PO), Protect the Software (PS), Produce Well-Secured Software (PW), and Respond to Vulnerabilities (RV) â and was issued in response to Executive Order 14028.
How does the NIST SP 800-218 (SSDF) Copilot help?
The Copilot helps you interpret specific SSDF practices and tasks (such as PW.7.2, RV.1.3, or PS.3.2), understand how they apply to your development environment, and identify where existing controls in frameworks like ISO 27001 or SOC 2 may satisfy the same outcomes without duplicating evidence.
Does SSDF alignment still require a federal attestation form?
OMB M-26-05 rescinded the prior attestation regime established by M-22-18 and M-23-16; federal agencies are no longer uniformly required to collect a Secure Software Development Attestation Form, and instead validate software security through agency-specific risk assessments. Agencies may still use SSDF resources voluntarily and may require SBOMs through contractual terms, so producers selling into the federal market should expect agency-specific security requirements rather than a single standard form.
