Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Tamper-resistance requirements directly drive hardware protections that block EM fault injection from reaching internal state or bypassing checks.

Mandating a tamper-protection program for components forces implementation of EM-FI countermeasures during development and supply-chain handling.

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-06 mostly match
prevents

Managing physical access directly reduces the opportunity to perform EM-FI attacks.

DE.CM-02 partial match
prevents

Physical-environment monitoring can detect EM-FI attempts or related tampering.

PR.IR-02 partial match
prevents

Protecting assets from environmental threats encompasses electromagnetic fault-injection vectors.

Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI

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.

finds

Security testing in development can discover EM-FI susceptibility, but does not inherently prevent the weakness in production.

degrades

Physical and environmental threat protection directly addresses EM-FI risk through shielding and environmental controls.

mitigates

Equipment siting and protection can reduce exposure to EM sources but does not specifically target fault-injection vectors.

prevents

Secure system architecture principles can include hardware-level countermeasures against EM-FI, though the control is not specific to this threat.
