Xacta® for Upgrading from NIST 800-53 Rev 4 to Rev 5
This brochure explains how Telos Xacta automates and simplifies upgrading from NIST 800-53 Revision 4 to Revision 5. The transition introduces significant changes, including restructured control elements, nearly double the number of organization-defined values, and new privacy and supply chain controls. Xacta uses translation files and automated mapping to align Rev 4 data with Rev 5 requirements, preserving workflows, documentation, and inheritance structures. The process reduces manual work and accelerates compliance. Xacta’s automation ensures accuracy, continuous monitoring, and easier adaptation to evolving cybersecurity regulations.
