Weaknesses this control addresses (4)AI-assisted
CWEs ranked by how often they appear in real CVEs. The rationale describes how this control reduces exploitability of each weakness class.
| CWE | Name | CVEs | Why this control addresses it |
|---|---|---|---|
CWE-200 | Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor | 11,000+ | Retaining and monitoring training records confirms personnel have completed privacy and security awareness training on handling sensitive data, reducing the chance of unauthorized exposure due to lack of knowledge. |
CWE-284 | Improper Access Control | 6,900+ | Documenting role-based training completion allows verification that only trained individuals receive or retain access, making improper access control harder to exploit through untrained personnel. |
CWE-522 | Insufficiently Protected Credentials | 1,600+ | Training records for security awareness and role-based training verify education on credential protection practices, tangibly reducing risks from mishandling or exposing credentials. |
CWE-285 | Improper Authorization | 1,500+ | Monitoring training records supports enforcement of authorization rules by ensuring staff understand and follow authorization procedures before performing actions. |
