Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SC-13 Cryptographic Protection good match

SC-13 mandates use of specific cryptography, structurally preventing unencrypted sensitive data.

SC-28 Protection of Information at Rest good match

SC-28 requires cryptographic protection of information at rest, eliminating the storage half of the weakness.

SC-8 Transmission Confidentiality and Integrity good match

SC-8 requires protecting confidentiality of transmitted information, directly stopping missing encryption on the wire.

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.

A.5.14 Information transfer partial match
blocks

Explicit rules requiring encryption for sensitive information in transit eliminate the weakness of sending data without cryptographic protection.

A.8.24 Use of cryptography partial match
removes

created from the owner's anchor; an owner grade is a row and does not wait for an instrument (Mythos 2026-09-29T15:58Z).

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
blocks

Explicitly calling for protection of data in transit and at rest, plus secure encryption of communications, drives the implementation of encryption that prevents clear-text exposure of sensitive information.

Hardening callouts derived

DISA STIG baselines are authored against specific weaknesses. Where this CVE cites a broad weakness class, the mapping is not asserted at that abstraction (owner ruling, 2026-09-25: grade only at Base and below), so no rule is shown here rather than a rule shown against the wrong grain.

  • No fine-grained STIG row for CWE-311, a class-level weakness. Rules are authored against its narrower children: CWE-312.
