Requirements NIST SOURCE

Discussion (NIST Supplemental Guidance)

Enforcing authorizations for entry and exit of system components may require restricting access to delivery areas and isolating the areas from the system and media libraries.

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 PE-16 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. types of system components to be authorized and controlled when entering the facility are defined;
  2. types of system components to be authorized and controlled when exiting the facility are defined;
  3. <PE-16_ODP[01] types of system components> are authorized when entering the facility;
  4. <PE-16_ODP[01] types of system components> are controlled when entering the facility;
  5. <PE-16_ODP[02] types of system components> are authorized when exiting the facility;
  6. <PE-16_ODP[02] types of system components> are controlled when exiting the facility;
  7. records of the system components are maintained.

Examine

[SELECT FROM: Physical and environmental protection policy; procedures addressing the delivery and removal of system components from the facility; facility housing the system; records of items entering and exiting the facility; system security plan; other relevant documents or records].

Interview

[SELECT FROM: Organizational personnel with responsibilities for controlling system components entering and exiting the facility; organizational personnel with information security responsibilities].

Test

[SELECT FROM: Organizational process for authorizing, monitoring, and controlling system-related items entering and exiting the facility; mechanisms supporting and/or implementing, authorizing, monitoring, and controlling system-related items entering and exiting the facility].

Overlays

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 PE-16. 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.
