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.
Defines isolation boundaries by specifying which external systems may access or process organization data.
Maintains isolation and compartmentalization by restricting flows between security domains or levels.
Reviewing the continued need for connections supports isolation and compartmentalization.
Locating systems away from hazards improves isolation and compartmentalization from external physical or environmental threats.
The CONOPS must articulate isolation and compartmentalization expectations for security and privacy, making architectural failures in separation of duties or domains harder to overlook.
Security architectures commonly incorporate isolation and compartmentalization strategies to limit the impact of compromises.
Organization-wide privacy program leadership ensures proper isolation and compartmentalization of personal data.
Oversight ensures data-matching activities maintain required isolation between distinct data sets and authorized user communities.
