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-284Improper Access Control5,385The policy defines roles, responsibilities, and management commitment for authorization and monitoring, establishing formal access controls over these security functions.
CWE-285Improper Authorization1,360Requiring documented authorization policy and procedures ensures authorization decisions follow defined, consistent processes instead of ad-hoc practices.
CWE-693Protection Mechanism Failure614Documented procedures to implement assessment, authorization, and monitoring controls prevent these protection mechanisms from failing due to undefined processes.
CWE-657Violation of Secure Design Principles19Mandating the policy be consistent with laws, standards, and guidelines enforces secure design principles in security governance and oversight.
