Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SA-11 Developer Testing and Evaluation good match

Developer testing and evaluation can discover erroneous unlock sequences before deployment.

SA-8 Security and Privacy Engineering Principles partial match

Security engineering principles include correct synchronization and resource-state management that stop multiple-unlock defects from being introduced.

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.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Security testing in development can detect resource-state anomalies caused by multiple unlocks.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Secure development lifecycle practices can include resource-locking discipline and review to prevent multiple-unlock defects.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Application security requirements can mandate proper lock acquisition/release patterns.

A.8.27 Secure system architecture and engineering principles partial match
prevents

Secure system architecture and engineering principles can mandate proper resource-state management and locking invariants.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards and reviews can catch or prevent erroneous unlock sequences in critical sections.

A.8.32 Change management partial match
prevents

Change management may catch locking issues introduced by modifications but does not prevent the weakness itself.
