V14.1.2V14.2.8
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Enforces per-object authorizations so that even if a file or directory is reachable, the sensitive contents remain inaccessible to unauthorized actors.
Associates sensitivity labels with data objects so that subsequent storage or flow decisions can enforce that only appropriately protected files or directories receive the data.
Controls information flows between objects, directly stopping sensitive data from being written into locations whose ACLs or visibility would expose it.
Requires confidentiality protection of information at rest, which can be implemented by restricting storage locations or encrypting contents that would otherwise be placed in externally visible files.
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.
Least-privilege file and directory permissions directly prevent unauthorized actors from reading sensitive data placed in accessible locations.
Protecting data-at-rest encompasses file-level access controls and encryption that stop exposure of sensitive information in externally reachable paths.
Hardened configuration baselines and ongoing config management reduce the chance that sensitive data is written to world-readable files or directories.
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.
By ensuring that only the minimum necessary data is present in files or directories that may be reachable by external parties, the control lowers the impact of any subsequent exposure.
