The federal control catalog: 299 active base controls across 20 families. Here is which ones Alvor performs, supports, or records, family by family, with no overstated claims.
All 299 active base controls (Rev 5 withdrew 23 of the catalogue’s 322).

About NIST 800-53
Who it is for
Federal agencies, FedRAMP-seeking SaaS, and contractors who need to show, control by control, where a platform carries the load and where the work stays in their stack.
NIST SP 800-53 is the control catalog behind FISMA and FedRAMP: the most comprehensive set of security and privacy controls in wide use. Rev 5 organizes its base controls into 20 families spanning governance, technical safeguards, and privacy; 299 are active after it withdrew 23 of the catalogue's 322 slots.
No platform implements all of 800-53: much of it is technical safeguards that live in your own architecture. What a GRC platform does is run the governance, assessment, risk, and documentation layer, and hold the evidence for everything else. The map below is grouped by family and rated at the base-control level so that division is explicit.
Control alignment
All 20 families, every base control rated. Governance families (PM, CA, RA, PL) are where Alvor performs the work; technical families (SC, PE, MP, SI) are where it holds the control and evidence while your stack does the work. Expand any family to see the controls.
Alvor performs the control or produces the evidence.
Alvor helps you manage, track, and document it.
You implement it operationally; Alvor stores the control and evidence.
This mapping shows where Alvor materially contributes to each control. It is a guide for scoping, not an authorization or attestation: responsibility for implementing and operating every control remains with your organization. Ratings reflect Alvor's product capabilities and may differ from your assessed boundary.
