NIST SP 800-218 SP800-218-PO.1.1: Define Security Requirements for Software Development
Identify and document security requirements for developed software, considering customer obligations, regulatory expectations, internal policy, and known threats. Make the requirements accessible to development teams and update them as the threat landscape changes.

What else in your programme already covers this
This control maps to 42 controls across 20 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.
NIST-CSF-GV.OC-03 Legal, regulatory, and contractual requirements regarding cybersecurity - including privacy and civil liberties obligations - are understood and managed
NIST-CSF-PR.PS-06 Secure software development practices are integrated, and their performance is monitored throughout the software development life cycle
You are reading one control. How much of NIST SP 800-218 have you already done?
NIST SP 800-218 SP800-218-PO.1.1 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of NIST SP 800-218 your existing evidence covers. Hold NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 and 30 of 42 NIST SP 800-218 controls already carry evidence.
Each report names every control your existing framework evidences, every one it does not, the reasoning behind each claim, and the claims that were argued against and rejected. 0 were rejected on the NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 pair alone.
