Weaknesses this control addresses (2)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-778 | Insufficient Logging | 28 | The requirement to maintain visitor access records implements logging of security-relevant physical access events, preventing insufficient logging of such events. |
CWE-1263 | Improper Physical Access Control | 13 | Maintaining, reviewing, and reporting anomalies in visitor access records directly detects and deters exploitation of improper physical access controls to the facility containing the system. |
