Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Directly requires protection against electromagnetic emanation leakage, which stops one class of the physical side-channel exposures described in CWE-1300.

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.
Limiting physical access reduces opportunity for side-channel observation but does not address emission-protection mechanisms inside the device.

Physical perimeters can limit attacker proximity needed for side-channel capture.
Entry controls reduce opportunities for physical observation of emissions.
Securing rooms and facilities can shield equipment from side-channel probing.
Monitoring deters or detects attempts to exploit physical side channels.
Protecting against physical threats can include shielding against emanation attacks.
Proper siting and protection of equipment can reduce observable emissions.
