CVE-2023-25913

Literacy training teaches users to recognize and avoid actions that result in unauthorized exposure of sensitive information.

Session auditing enables detection of unauthorized exposure or access to sensitive information during user activities.

Audit record review and analysis can detect unauthorized exposure or access to sensitive information.

Penetration testing probes authentication mechanisms for bypasses, allowing identification and fixing of improper authentication issues.

The integrated analysis team enables faster detection and containment of incidents involving unauthorized exposure of sensitive information, limiting attacker success in exploiting such weaknesses.

Security architectures must specify authentication requirements and approaches, making systemic authentication weaknesses harder to introduce.

Trained staff understand data-handling requirements and are less likely to expose sensitive information through misconfiguration or poor design.

Hunting detects anomalous authentication patterns or successful bypasses that allow persistent unauthorized entry.

A.5.10 only requires awareness, a topic-specific acceptable-use policy stating expected behaviours/monitoring, and procedures referencing classification and other controls; per the owner's explicit rule on labelling and similar dependency-style clauses, this does not itself prevent exposure (CWE-200) unless access/DLP/etc. act on it.

Requiring the return of all physical and electronic assets plus secure deletion of organizational data from personal devices reduces the chance that sensitive information remains accessible to departing personnel.

A.5.12 only defines and communicates a classification scheme so that protection needs can be understood; per the owner's explicit rule, labeling/classification does not itself prevent exposure and requires other controls (e.g. access enforcement) to act on it.

By requiring classification labels and metadata on all information assets, the control makes it harder for sensitive data to be inadvertently exposed because downstream systems and users can recognize and enforce handling rules based on those labels.

Requiring encryption, access controls, and recipient authentication for transfers directly reduces the chance that sensitive data reaches an unauthorized observer.

Mandating segregated approval and oversight for non-human identities reduces the chance that weak or orphaned credentials can be exploited for unauthorized authentication.
