FedRAMP OSCAL SSP Management Platform by c1secure

First Enterprise-Scale Solution for FedRAMP SSP Automation on ServiceNow

Washington D.C., February 27, 2023 – c1secure, a leader in cybersecurity innovation, has officially launched the C1 FedCloud OSCAL SSP Management Center—the first enterprise-grade platform that automates and streamlines the development, maintenance, and export of FedRAMP System Security Plans (SSPs) using NIST’s OSCAL framework.


Built on ServiceNow. Powered by OSCAL.

Manual SSP authoring using word processors has long been a pain point for cloud service providers. The OSCAL SSP Management Center eliminates that friction by offering a structured, web-based interface to manage FedRAMP SSPs—all within the familiar ServiceNow platform.

This solution supports:

  • Secure and dynamic SSP template creation
  • FedRAMP-specific control management
  • Export to OSCAL XML and JSON formats
  • NIST Schematron and FedRAMP validation tool compatibility

The result? Faster submission timelines, lower operational costs, and stronger audit readiness.


Why OSCAL and Why Now?

NIST’s Open Security Controls Assessment Language (OSCAL) is a standardized format for representing control catalogs, baselines, and system security plans. It enables:

  • Consistency across FedRAMP submissions
  • Automation of security documentation
  • Improved collaboration with 3PAOs and authorizing agencies

By aligning with OSCAL, c1secure’s platform ensures compliance, improves efficiency, and enhances trust.


Core Features of the FedRAMP OSCAL SSP Management Center

  • Full Control Lifecycle Management
    Define, assess, and update FedRAMP controls directly within the platform.
  • FedRAMP Catalog Integration
    Preloaded with GSA and NIST-aligned control catalogs.
  • Template-Driven SSP Authoring
    Populate structured web forms instead of static Word documents.
  • Validation-Ready OSCAL Output
    Exports tested against NIST Schematron and FedRAMP validation tools.
  • ServiceNow-Native Experience
    Built entirely on the Now Platform for familiar UX and seamless IRM integration.

Coming Soon: OSCAL-Based POA&M Reporting

The next release will include support for OSCAL-based Plans of Action & Milestones (POA&M)—a significant step toward automating FedRAMP continuous monitoring. This will further reduce the reporting burden on cloud service providers and deliver measurable time and cost savings.
