V14.1.2
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Enforces approved authorizations for logical access, directly stopping unauthorized actors from reaching sensitive system information.
Enforces information flow policies that block sensitive system data from crossing into unauthorized control spheres.
Limits privileges so that only the minimum necessary access is granted, reducing the chance of exposing system-level details.
Controls communications at external and key internal boundaries to keep sensitive system information inside authorized spheres.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Enforcing least-privilege access permissions directly prevents unauthorized actors from reaching sensitive system information.
Protecting environments from unauthorized logical access stops exposure of internal system details to outsiders.
Secure-development practices reduce the chance of code paths that leak sensitive system information.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Keeping internal maps, directories, and signage from public view prevents disclosure of system or facility details that could aid reconnaissance or targeted attacks.
