PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly prevent embedding sensitive data in query strings as part of input-handling and data-flow design.

PR.DS-02 partial match
prevents

HTTPS encryption protects query strings in transit but does not address the root design flaw of placing sensitive data in URLs.

finds

Security testing can detect sensitive data leakage via query strings.

mitigates

DLP solutions can detect and block sensitive data in URLs.

degrades

Network security controls can enforce HTTPS and block sensitive data in URLs.

prevents

Application security requirements should mandate avoiding sensitive data in query strings.

prevents

Secure architecture principles discourage exposing sensitive data in URLs.

prevents

Secure coding standards directly prohibit placing secrets in query parameters.
