Day 42: Why Your System Security Plan (SSP) Is More Than a Document

With 42 days left, your System Security Plan (SSP) should be more than a formality, it should be a living document that reflects your cybersecurity posture.

An SSP tells the story of how your organization protects sensitive data. It includes:

  • Your system architecture
  • Implemented controls
  • Planned improvements
  • Data flow and boundaries

Why It Matters

  • Required for SPRS submission
  • Reviewed during CMMC assessments
  • Supports your POA&M and scoring

What You Can Do Today

  • Review your SSP for clarity and completeness
  • Make sure it aligns with NIST SP 800-171
  • Update it to reflect recent changes

Valeo Networks helps contractors build SSPs that are accurate, audit-ready, and aligned with CMMC expectations.
