[Verse 1]
Before we dive into STIG and OSCAL ways
You need four pillars to guide through the maze
NIST eight hundred fifty-three revision five
Security controls to keep systems alive
From access control to incident response
Each family matters, each one counts of course
[Chorus]
Four prerequisites, learn them well
NIST controls and RMF to tell
Compliance frameworks, one you should know
XML JSON, let the data flow
Four prerequisites, build your foundation
STIG meets OSCAL transformation
[Verse 2]
Risk Management Framework, eight hundred thirty-seven
Seven steps to take you from earth up to heaven
Categorize systems, select your controls
Implement and assess, that's how security rolls
Authorize to operate, monitor with care
RMF cycle keeps your data aware
[Chorus]
Four prerequisites, learn them well
NIST controls and RMF to tell
Compliance frameworks, one you should know
XML JSON, let the data flow
Four prerequisites, build your foundation
STIG meets OSCAL transformation
[Bridge]
FedRAMP for the cloud, CMMC for defense
HIPAA guards health data, each framework makes sense
Choose one that speaks to your industry's call
Understanding compliance helps you stand tall
[Verse 3]
Markup languages hold the structured key
XML with angle brackets, hierarchy free
JSON with objects, arrays nested clean
Both carry data in ways clearly seen
Comfort reading either opens the door
To automation treasures and so much more
[Chorus]
Four prerequisites, learn them well
NIST controls and RMF to tell
Compliance frameworks, one you should know
XML JSON, let the data flow
Four prerequisites, build your foundation
STIG meets OSCAL transformation
[Outro]
Master these four before you begin
STIG and OSCAL knowledge you'll win
