This guide contains everything you need to know about conducting an information security risk assessment questionnaire at your organization.
Isora GRC helps security teams and federal agencies meet NIST SP 800-53 requirements by streamlining risk assessments, tracking security and privacy controls, and documenting compliance across information systems. Designed to make NIST 800-53 achievable for real-world teams, Isora replaces fragmented spreadsheets with centralized workflows—so you can assess, manage, and report on risks clearly, efficiently, and in real time.
Managing NIST 800-53 requirements manually slows everything down. Security teams struggle to coordinate risk assessments, track access controls, document security and privacy controls, and keep compliance data updated in real time. Without a structured approach to managing information systems and organizations, gaps emerge—weakening your security posture, increasing audit risks, and making it harder to protect sensitive information. The more complex your environment becomes, the more critical it is to move beyond ad hoc processes and into centralized, repeatable workflows that align with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) expectations.
Deliver structured assessments mapped to NIST SP 800-53 requirements and control baselines. Use customizable questionnaires to evaluate security and privacy controls across teams, systems, and departments—supporting real-time tracking of your security posture.
Maintain a centralized inventory of vendors and contractors. Send targeted security questionnaires to evaluate third-party risk and gather documentation needed to meet NIST 800-53 requirements for supply chain risk management. Protect sensitive information by ensuring vendors align with your security and compliance standards.
Build audit-ready reports that document risk assessments, control effectiveness, and remediation status. Share real-time dashboards with leadership or auditors to demonstrate progress against NIST SP 800-53 standards and cybersecurity risk management objectives.
Document, assign, and track cybersecurity risks and remediation efforts in one collaborative risk register. Ensure effective incident response and continuously strengthen security controls and cybersecurity practices across your organization.

NIST 800-53 compliance software helps organizations implement and manage the security and privacy controls defined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to protect sensitive information across information systems and organizations. These platforms support risk assessments, documentation of control baselines, and real-time compliance reporting.
Isora GRC streamlines the process of implementing NIST 800-53 by providing structured workflows for risk assessments, vendor risk management, and compliance reporting. It centralizes risk management processes, supports information security programs, and helps align your activities with the standards and technology outlined by NIST SP 800-53.
Yes. Isora GRC enables teams to conduct structured risk assessments aligned with NIST CSF and NIST 800-53 control baselines. It helps identify control deficiencies, document risks in real time, and assign remediation tasks—giving you a clear view of your security posture.
Isora GRC improves your visibility into supply chain risk by maintaining a centralized vendor inventory, managing security questionnaires, and evaluating vendor risk in real time. It aligns your vendor risk management processes with NIST standards, helping protect sensitive information shared with third parties.
Unlike broad GRC platforms, Isora GRC is built specifically for information security teams managing cybersecurity risk management. It centralizes assessments, vendor oversight, risk register management, and reporting in a way that aligns with NIST SP 800-53 and makes compliance achievable without unnecessary complexity.
Yes. Isora GRC supports recurring assessments, reassessment cycles, and historical tracking—helping security teams meet the ongoing assessment, authorization, and monitoring requirements outlined by NIST standards.
