NIST SSDF · SP 800-218 Secure Software Development · Evidence & Implementation Kit
Meet the NIST SSDF, without decoding SP 800-218 yourself.
Every SSDF practice handed to you as an adopt-ready control, across preparing the organization, protecting the software, producing well-secured software and responding to vulnerabilities, with the evidence an assessor examines.
Attestable in a weekend, not a quarter.

Here is the honest situation. The NIST Secure Software Development Framework, SP 800-218, is the baseline for secure development, and the reference behind the federal secure-software attestation. It sets practices across four groups: prepare the organization, protect the software, produce well-secured software, and respond to vulnerabilities. From secure requirements and toolchains through threat modelling, secure coding, testing and SBOMs to vulnerability response. A team that develops carefully but cannot show its practices, its SBOMs or its testing is exactly where teams fall short.

This Kit removes the guesswork. It is the SSDF practices written as adopt-ready controls you personalize in a weekend, with the evidence an assessor examines.

What you get, the moment you buy

18
Practices as adopt-ready controls. Every SSDF practice, across prepare, protect, produce and respond, written so you personalize and apply it.
18
Evidence-they-examine checklists. For each control, exactly what an assessor examines, plus where teams fall short, so you close the gap first.
1
SSDF Control Matrix, pre-built. Every practice in a working spreadsheet, ready to record status, owner and evidence location.
1
Gap & Readiness Assessment. Score each practice and the workbook returns your readiness as a single percentage, and exactly what to fix next.

Grounded in the NIST SSDF (SP 800-218) and its four practice groups, with secure requirements, toolchains and environments, code protection and integrity, threat modelling, secure coding, testing, SBOMs and vulnerability response called out. Editable Word and Excel files.

The SSDF is the reference behind the attestation
When you attest that your software was built securely, the SSDF is the standard you are attesting against. An attestation with no practices and no evidence behind it is a risk, not compliance. This Kit turns the SSDF practices into controls with the evidence an assessor asks for, so your attestation stands on something real.

What one control looks like

This is defining secure development requirements, where the SSDF begins. All 18 are built to this depth.

PO-1 Define secure development requirements PREPARE
Put this control in place

Define and document the security requirements for [your organization name]'s software development, covering both the software and its development infrastructure, and keep them current, so requirements are clear and the organization can evidence them against SSDF practice PO.1.

Framework note.

SSDF practice PO.1 is to define security requirements for software development.

Evidence an assessor examines
  • Documented security requirements
  • Coverage of software and infrastructure
  • Records kept current
Common finding they raise: Security requirements for development are not defined.

Why this is not another template pack

  • The evidence is the point. A practice you cannot evidence will not back an attestation. This tells you what an assessor examines and where teams fall short, for every SSDF practice.
  • SBOMs, testing and response built in. Software bills of materials, code testing and vulnerability response are written into the controls, the substance the SSDF requires.
  • Built on a mapped compliance corpus, not one person's opinion, from a graph of thousands of controls across standards.
  • It compounds. The SSDF sits on your development and security programs, so this work feeds your EO 14028 attestation and your supply-chain security.

Who buys this

Software producers, especially those selling to the government, and their development, security and compliance leads. Whether it is a first alignment or an attestation-readiness pass, you save weeks and walk in with the four practice groups structured.

By the end of the weekend you will have
✓  An adopt-ready control for all 18 practices
✓  A completed SSDF control matrix
✓  The evidence an assessor examines
✓  Your secure requirements, toolchain and testing in place
✓  A readiness percentage and a fix list
✓  The SBOM and vulnerability-response gaps closed

Common questions

Is it really editable? Yes. Word and Excel files you own and adapt. No portal, no subscription.

Is this an official NIST tool? No. It is an independent implementation toolkit grounded in the published SSDF (SP 800-218), to get your practices and evidence in order fast.

Does it support the secure-software attestation? Yes. It builds the SSDF practices the attestation references as controls, with the evidence behind them.

Does it cover SBOMs and vulnerability response? Yes. Retaining provenance and SBOMs and the identify, assess and remediate response are built as controls.

What if it is not for me? A 30-day money-back guarantee.

Do not attest to secure development you cannot show.
Every SSDF practice is fast to adopt with the Kit. It is instant, and it is guaranteed.
Add it to your cart and be attestable this weekend.
