Requirements NIST SOURCE

Perform security and privacy compliance checks on constituent system components prior to the establishment of the internal connection.

Discussion (NIST Supplemental Guidance)

Compliance checks include verification of the relevant baseline configuration.

Implementation Guidance

Engineering Interpretation

Original engineering commentary written for this explorer — not NIST source text and not authoritative guidance.

No engineering interpretation has been authored for CA-9(1) yet. This section is architected to receive it — see the Requirements and Assessment sections above for the authoritative NIST source content in the meantime.

Assessment

NIST SP 800-53A REV 5.2.0

Assessment Objectives

  1. security compliance checks are performed on constituent system components prior to the establishment of the internal connection;
  2. privacy compliance checks are performed on constituent system components prior to the establishment of the internal connection.

Examine

[SELECT FROM: Assessment, authorization, and monitoring policy; access control policy; procedures addressing system connections; system and communications protection policy; system design documentation; system configuration settings and associated documentation; list of components or classes of components authorized as internal system connections; assessment report; system audit records; system security plan; privacy plan; other relevant documents or records].

Interview

[SELECT FROM: Organizational personnel with responsibilities for developing, implementing, or authorizing internal system connections; organizational personnel with information security and privacy responsibilities].

Test

[SELECT FROM: Mechanisms supporting compliance checks].

Overlays

Showing the OT/ICS overlay for the parent control CA-9 — see the CA-9(1) entries within each baseline below.

OT/ICS Overlay SP 800-82r3

NIST SP 800-82r3 Appendix F, Table 22. Blank baseline means the control/control enhancement is not selected in that initial OT baseline.

LOW

  • Base control: Included (matches standard baseline)

MODERATE

  • Base control: Included (matches standard baseline)

HIGH

  • Base control: Included (matches standard baseline)

STIGs & CCIs

No STIG checks or CCI mappings are currently loaded for CA-9(1). 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.
