eMASS (BETA)

eMASS CLI

This CLI feature allows the user to populate an eMASS formatted excel workbook with controls and the control's assessment data from a RegScale System Security Plan (SSP) into an Excel. This Excel workbook can then be uploaded to eMASS to update an SSP in eMASS.

  • populate_controls - Populates the provided Excel workbook with controls and the control's assessment data using the RegScale SSP number ID provided
  • get_template - Downloads the expected template to populate the data during populate_controls

eMASS Workflow
