What types of compliance documents can ComplianceIQ generate?

ComplianceIQ generates privacy policies, terms of service, employee handbooks, data handling policies, OSHA compliance documents, acceptable use policies, HIPAA compliance docs, information security policies, and more — all tailored to your industry.

Are the generated documents legally valid?

ComplianceIQ generates comprehensive, industry-standard compliance documents informed by current regulations. While they provide an excellent foundation, we recommend having critical documents reviewed by legal counsel for your specific jurisdiction.

How does ComplianceIQ stay current with regulations?

Our AI models are continuously updated with the latest regulatory frameworks including GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, SOC 2, OSHA, and more. Pro and Enterprise plans include regulatory update alerts.

What NIST CSF 2.0 non-compliance actually costs

Up to $51,744

FTC Safeguards Rule penalty (per violation)

16 CFR 314 — references NIST controls

$100K–$50M+

DoD CMMC L2 lost-contract exposure

Most DoD contracts post-2025 require CMMC = NIST SP 800-171 alignment

$700M+

Equifax (2017 breach settlement)

FTC + CFPB + 50 state AGs — root cause was missing NIST patch + segmentation controls

Who must comply with NIST CSF 2.0?

Federal agencies — required by FISMA + OMB Circular A-130
Federal contractors handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) — NIST SP 800-171 / CMMC mandatory
Critical infrastructure (16 sectors per PPD-21) — strongly encouraged; many sector regulators reference CSF
Voluntary but de-facto standard for any U.S. enterprise security program; insurers and customers increasingly require it

What this audit checks

12 required clauses, scored as Present / Partial / Missing with the exact regulatory citation and suggested fix.

GOVERN (GV) — security strategy, roles, policy, supply chain

New top-level function in CSF 2.0 — board oversight, risk appetite, C-SCRM

IDENTIFY (ID) — asset inventory + risk assessment

ID.AM-1/2 — hardware/software inventory; ID.RA — documented risk assessment refreshed annually

PROTECT (PR.AA) — identity, authentication, access control

PR.AA-1 to 5 — unique IDs, MFA, least privilege, separation of duties

PROTECT (PR.DS) — data security in transit + at rest

PR.DS-1/2 — strong crypto, key management aligned to SP 800-57

PROTECT (PR.PS) — platform security + secure configuration

PR.PS-1 — hardening baselines (CIS/STIG), patch SLA

PROTECT (PR.IR) — technology infrastructure resilience

PR.IR-1/3/4 — segmentation, backups tested, capacity

DETECT (DE.CM) — continuous monitoring + log review

DE.CM-1/3/9 — network, personnel, hardware/software monitoring

DETECT (DE.AE) — anomaly + event analysis

DE.AE-2/3/6/7/8 — correlation, threshold tuning, escalation criteria

RESPOND (RS.MA / RS.AN / RS.MI) — incident response

Documented IR plan, RACI, containment + eradication procedures, evidence preservation

RESPOND (RS.CO) — communication during incidents

RS.CO-2/3 — notification to leadership, regulators, customers, law enforcement

RECOVER (RC.RP) — recovery plan with RTO/RPO

RC.RP-1/2/3 — tested annually, integrated with BCP/DR

RECOVER (RC.CO) — restoration communications

RC.CO-3 — public + customer messaging, post-incident reporting

Why NIST CSF 2.0 audits actually fail

Skipping the new GOVERN function

CSF 2.0 (Feb 2024) added GOVERN as the FIRST function. Programs built on CSF 1.1 typically have no documented risk appetite, board cadence, or supply-chain risk program (C-SCRM). Auditors look here first.

Asset inventory that is a 6-month-old spreadsheet

ID.AM requires authoritative + current inventory. A snapshot from your last audit cycle fails. Connect to your CMDB, EDR, or CSPM and prove freshness.

Treating CSF as a tier instead of a profile

CSF Tiers (Partial → Adaptive) describe rigor, not maturity scores. Auditors want a Current Profile + Target Profile + gap roadmap — most programs only have generic tier claims.

No mapping from policy to SP 800-53 controls

Policy that says 'we follow NIST' without referencing specific 800-53 Rev. 5 control IDs (AC-2, AU-6, IR-4, SI-4, etc.) won't satisfy a contracting officer or insurer. Map them explicitly.

NIST CSF 2.0 FAQ

What's new in CSF 2.0 vs 1.1?

Released Feb 2024. Adds GOVERN as a 6th function, dramatically expands supply-chain risk (C-SCRM), provides organizational + community profiles, and adds implementation examples + informative references mapped to SP 800-53 Rev. 5, ISO 27001:2022, and CRI Profile.

Is CSF the same as NIST 800-53 or 800-171?

No. CSF is the outcomes-based framework (what to achieve). SP 800-53 Rev. 5 is the control catalog (how) for federal systems. SP 800-171 is the CUI subset for contractors. Most mature programs use CSF as the spine and 800-53 controls as the substance.

How does CMMC relate?

CMMC 2.0 (DFARS 252.204-7021) directly assesses contractor implementation of SP 800-171 Rev. 2 (Level 2 = 110 controls). Level 2+ requires a third-party C3PAO assessment every 3 years. Most DoD primes are flowing CMMC requirements down to subs in 2025–2026.
