Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

si-11 directly requires error messages to avoid revealing exploitable information about the system or its data.

Enforces failure to a known state while preserving required properties, limiting impact of unhandled exceptions.

Mandates explicit fail-safe procedures triggered by indicated failures, structurally preventing unhandled exceptional conditions.

Requires application of security engineering principles that include robust exception and error handling during design.
