NIST CSF Compliance

Data protection that meets the SP NIST 800-171 standard for FAR and DFARS compliance

XQ NIST compliance

Prepare for contracting standards

  • NIST SP 800-171 is a set of requirements that defines the minimum security standard necessary for firms handling controlled unclassified information (CUI). Meeting this standard is necessary for businesses involved in U.S. government supply chains and contracting, requiring that you meet 110 controls.

  • Meeting NIST standards is critical for any business looking to bid on government contracts or subcontract, but with growing cloud workflows and distributed teams, data is increasingly hard to protect. Businesses are turning to complex, costly security solutions that compress margins and disrupt workflows.

Compliance Features

XQ complies with NIST 800-171 standards for controlled unclassified information (CUI). We provide a plug-and-play solution that doesn’t interfere with your existing security protocols. XQ embeds directly into the messaging platforms that you are already using, making encryption a seamless experience that doesn’t interfere with your workflow. XQ’s cross-platform mobile design makes it possible to take regulated conversations anywhere. With XQ, iOS and Android conversations can be encrypted, allowing you to stay secure regardless of where you are.

We also built XQ with dedicated audit and compliance tools to make you and your CISO’s lives easier. In just a couple of clicks in the XQ dashboard, you can manage and export your keys for audit and compliance purposes. In addition to key control, we built our API to integrate directly into your AWS and Azure server. Doing so allows you to take XQ completely out of the loop and have total control over your data.
