CVE-2023-6001

Requiring attribute association with information prevents authorization from being performed without necessary security or privacy context.

Mandates authorization checks before permitting access or data processing via external systems.

The control provides a mechanism for authorized users to determine authorization matches, preventing sharing without proper authorization verification.

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

Sanitizing equipment to remove specified information before off-site maintenance prevents exposure of sensitive information to unauthorized actors such as external maintenance personnel.

Requiring detailed, requestable records of every PII disclosure directly aids detection of unauthorized exposures of sensitive information.

Ensures missing authorization mechanisms for critical data functions are identified and remediated via policy.

Annual reviews and proposal scrutiny detect and block matching programs that would expose sensitive data to unauthorized recipients or systems.

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.

Requiring formal authorization of every access request before rights are granted ensures that checks for required permissions are performed, preventing missing authorization checks from being introduced.
