Database Application for NIST Special Publication 800-53

The NIST Special Publication 800-53 Revision 3 Reference Database Application can be downloaded and contains the catalog of security controls from Appendix F and G of SP 800-53 Recommended Security Controls for Federal Information Systems and Organizations. The database application has been developed primarily to help customers quickly and efficiently:

• Browse the security controls, control enhancements, and supplemental guidance, including summarizing by control class, control family and control impact baseline;
• Search the security control catalog using user-specified keywords; and
• Export the security control-related information in the database application to other popular data formats (e.g., .dbf, .xls, .htm, .xml, .csv) that can be used in various tools and applications. The information in the database is read only and can be viewed or extracted, but cannot be updated or modified using this application. .
