These three artifacts are how a defense contractor demonstrates NIST SP 800-171 compliance on paper, and they are the first things an assessor reads. Most of the ones we see describe an environment nobody is actually running. Cyberneza builds documentation that matches reality, tracks what is genuinely open, and produces a score you can defend line by line.

Describes your system boundary and how each of the 110 NIST SP 800-171 requirements is met within it. It is a description of the environment as it runs — not a policy statement and not an aspiration. An SSP that does not match what an assessor observes is worse than a thin one.
Tracks requirements not yet met: what is open, who owns it, and by when. A credible POA&M with real dates reads better than an SSP claiming full implementation that evidence does not support.
A numeric summary of your 800-171 implementation submitted to the Supplier Performance Risk System. Scoring starts at 110 and deducts weighted points for each unmet requirement, so the score is only as good as the assessment behind it.
An SPRS score is a representation made to the government in connection with contract eligibility. Submitting a score the underlying environment does not support is not a documentation problem — it is a representation problem, and it is the kind of thing that gets revisited long after award.
A lower score that is accurate, paired with a POA&M showing real movement, is a defensible position. An inflated score is not. We will not help you produce the second one.
Write a System Security Plan from the environment as it stands, or rebuild an inherited one that no longer describes anything real.
Turn open findings into tracked items with owners, dates, and enough detail that progress is verifiable rather than asserted.
Work through the scoring methodology requirement by requirement so you understand every deduction and can defend the total.
Connect each claim in the SSP to the operating record that demonstrates it — the step that separates a document from a defensible one.
Read your existing SSP and POA&M the way an assessor will, and tell you where they will not survive contact.
These are living documents. Environments drift, and a stale SSP is a finding in itself.
Send us what you have — an inherited SSP, a spreadsheet, or nothing at all. We will tell you where it stands and what it takes to make it defensible.
