Weaknesses this control addresses (5)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+ | Explicit policy scope and review cycles make improper disclosure of sensitive PII less likely to occur or persist. |
CWE-862 | Missing Authorization | 10,200+ | Requiring designated ownership and periodic updates ensures authorization checks are defined and maintained for PII operations. |
CWE-284 | Improper Access Control | 6,900+ | The policy defines roles, responsibilities, and compliance requirements that establish and govern access controls for PII. |
CWE-285 | Improper Authorization | 1,500+ | Documented procedures and management commitment directly support consistent authorization decisions during PII processing. |
CWE-359 | Exposure of Private Personal Information to an Unauthorized Actor | 200+ | PII transparency and processing policy plus procedures reduce the chance of unauthorized exposure of private personal information. |
