Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

AC-3 Access Enforcement good match

Enforces approved authorizations for logical access to stored information, directly stopping unauthorized read/write.

SC-28 Protection of Information at Rest good match

Requires protection of confidentiality/integrity for information at rest, directly addressing insecure storage.

AC-6 Least Privilege good match

Limits privileges so only authorized accesses to sensitive stored data are permitted.

SC-4 Information in Shared System Resources good match

Directly prevents unauthorized transfer of information through shared resources such as caches.

AC-16 Security and Privacy Attributes partial match

Associates security attributes with information to support proper access decisions on storage.

AC-4 Information Flow Enforcement partial match

Controls information flows to keep sensitive data from leaving its authorized control sphere via caches.

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.

PR.AA-05 mostly match
prevents

Enforces least-privilege permissions and authorization reviews that limit read/write access to stored sensitive data.

PR.DS-01 mostly match
prevents

Protecting confidentiality of data-at-rest covers caches that persist sensitive information.

PR.DS-10 partial match
prevents

Protecting data-in-use can mitigate exposure when caches hold transient sensitive values.

PR.IR-01 partial match
prevents

Logical access controls on environments reduce the chance an outsider can reach the cache.

PR.PS-01 partial match
prevents

Hardened configuration baselines can disable or secure caching of sensitive data.

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.8.12 Data leakage prevention mostly match
prevents

Data leakage prevention can block unauthorized access to cached sensitive information.

A.8.3 Information access restriction mostly match
prevents

Information access restriction directly limits who can read cached sensitive data.

A.8.10 Information deletion partial match
mitigates

Information deletion ensures sensitive data is removed from caches when no longer needed.

A.8.24 Use of cryptography partial match
mitigates

Cryptography can protect cached data at rest, but does not address access control scope.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding practices prevent caching of sensitive data outside intended boundaries.

A.7.10 Storage media none match
mitigates

Secure reuse and disposal procedures, including cryptographic wiping and physical destruction, stop the insecure storage of sensitive data on media that may later be accessed by unauthorized actors.
