Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Requires verification of individual access authorizations before granting facility entry, addressing missing authentication for critical physical access.
Knowing every system allows confirmation that critical functions are not left without required authentication mechanisms.
Requires authentication gates on critical functions that must remain unavailable to anonymous public users.
Decoy implementations of critical functions without authentication lure and record attackers probing for missing auth checks.
Requires established identification and authentication to unlock, mitigating missing authentication for continued system access.
Requiring identification and rationale for actions allowed without authentication ensures critical functions are not left unprotected by forcing review of authentication requirements.
Authorizing mobile device connections to organizational systems ensures authentication is performed for this critical access function.
Controls on authorized publication limit files and directories with nonpublic data from becoming accessible to external parties.
