8 controls. 143 other frameworks in our corpus share controls with it. Here is all of it, and how much of it you are already doing.

8 controls 143 frameworks share controls with it United States verified against its source document

Every control below is one this framework asks for. The right hand column counts how many other frameworks in our corpus carry the same control, which is the difference between doing this work once and doing it again for the next standard.

NIST SP 800-115 Security Testing and Assessment Evidence & Implementation Kit

8 controls is the documentation set somebody has to write. This is that set, already written: an adopt-ready artifact for every control in policy and procedure text you edit rather than draft, and the evidence checklist an auditor asks for against each.

The same set every buyer of this kit receives. Nothing here is produced on request.

What you already have

Frameworks whose controls overlap this one, most first. If you run any of them, the count is roughly what you have already evidenced.

Tell me when NIST SP 800-115 (Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment) files something new

One email when a public company newly discloses something this framework governs, naming the company and what our corpus says it puts in scope. Nothing else, and one click to stop.

What an auditor will ask you to produce

The artefacts named on the failure modes this framework speaks to.

  • Customer agreement clauses
  • Processing instructions log
  • Use restriction policy
  • Audit trail
  • QA checklist
  • Reviewer signoff
  • Annual review
  • RACI for infosec roles
  • RACI matrix
  • role descriptions

How programmes fail on this

Failure modes named by this framework and others. Each opens the full record.

What this page is

A control-level reference for NIST SP 800-115 (Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment), drawn from our framework corpus. Control codes and titles are references to the standard, not reproductions of it. The overlap counts and the auditor artefacts are our own work and are the part you will not find elsewhere.
