Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

AC-16 Security and Privacy Attributes good match

Security attributes explicitly include ownership, so proper attribute association and management stops incorrect ownership assignment.

AC-3 Access Enforcement good match

Access enforcement requires correct ownership verification before granting access to objects or resources.

AC-24 Access Control Decisions partial match

Access decisions must be based on accurate ownership data for each request.
