SCF Framework implementations

I am currently exploring the implementation of the Secure Controls Framework (SCF) in our organization. While conducting my research, I came across the Autorotative sources and control objectives on the official SCF website (https://securecontrolsframework.com/scf-download/).

I am reaching out to inquire if anyone in your organization has experience with implementing the SCF framework. I am particularly interested in learning about practical insights, challenges faced, and best practices associated with the implementation process.

Additionally, as I am compiling relevant information for my research, I would like to ensure that proper citations are included in my documentation. Could you please guide me on where I can find more details and citations related to the SCF framework? Any recommended publications, whitepapers, or authoritative sources would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

Hi @Veeresh468 ,

To answer your question, we can use both  ServiceNow support free SCF (Secure Controls Framework) and  UCF (Unified Compliance Framework).

SCF  is generally for the control objectives and policies which already exist at your company , you can create the entity scoping and others and start using SCF. However, UCF is a external body and Unified Compliance is the integration of processes and tools to aggregate and harmonize all compliance requirements applicable to an organization and it is the world’s largest library database of interconnected compliance documents and the world’s only commercially available Common Controls framework, which gives helps you with Authority documents and citations. Also, once you have UCF integrated it will help you to create the Policies, controls,etc.. automatically.

Only using SCF won't give you Authority documents!!

ServiceNow supports UCF integration using UCF spoke .

Refer to this video to understand importance of UCF :https://community.servicenow.com/community?id=community_article&sys_id=d4146efbdbc68c102be0a851ca961...

I'm also exploring how to use and implement SCF in ServiceNow IRM. Can you share the process and experience If anyone has already implemented?
