Notice of Correction or Deletion
LOW MODERATE HIGHRequirements NIST SOURCE
Notify [recipients] and individuals that the personally identifiable information has been corrected or deleted.
Discussion (NIST Supplemental Guidance)
When personally identifiable information is corrected or deleted, organizations take steps to ensure that all authorized recipients of such information, and the individual with whom the information is associated or their designated representatives, are informed of the corrected or deleted information.
Implementation Guidance

Assessment
Assessment Objectives
- recipients of personally identifiable information to be notified when the personally identifiable information has been corrected or deleted are defined;
- <SI-18(05)_ODP recipients> and individuals are notified when the personally identifiable information has been corrected or deleted.
Examine
[SELECT FROM: System and information integrity policy; system and information integrity procedures; personally identifiable information processing policy; system configuration; individual requests for corrections or deletions; notifications of correction or deletion action; system audit records; system security plan; privacy plan; privacy impact assessment; privacy risk assessment documentation; other relevant documents or records].
Interview
[SELECT FROM: Organizational personnel responsible for sending correction or deletion notices; organizational personnel with information security and privacy responsibilities].
Test
[SELECT FROM: Organizational processes for notifications of correction or deletion; automated mechanisms supporting and/or implementing notifications of correction or deletion].
STIGs & CCIs
No STIG checks or CCI mappings are currently loaded for SI-18(5). 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.
