Assessment
Assessment Objectives
- time period for retaining individual training records is defined;
- information security and privacy training activities, including security and privacy awareness training and specific role-based security and privacy training, are documented;
- information security and privacy training activities, including security and privacy awareness training and specific role-based security and privacy training, are monitored;
- individual training records are retained for <AT-04_ODP time period>.
Examine
[SELECT FROM: Security and privacy awareness and training policy; procedures addressing security and privacy training records; security and privacy awareness and training records; system security plan; privacy plan; other relevant documents or records].
Interview
[SELECT FROM: Organizational personnel with information security and privacy training record retention responsibilities].
Test
[SELECT FROM: Mechanisms supporting the management of security and privacy training records].

STIGs & CCIs
No STIG checks or CCI mappings are currently loaded for AT-4. This section is architected to display, per product: STIG ID, Finding ID, Severity, Title, Description, Check, Fix, CCI, and NIST control mapping — but nothing is populated here until a real DISA STIG/CCI dataset is ingested.
