Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

AC-25 Reference Monitor good match

Requires a tamperproof, always-invoked reference monitor that structurally blocks bypass via any alternate path.

AC-3 Access Enforcement good match

Enforces authorization checks on every logical access path, eliminating unauthenticated alternate channels.

IA-2 Identification and Authentication (Organizational Users) good match

Mandates unique identification and authentication for all organizational users, covering the primary authentication requirement.

SC-7 Boundary Protection partial match

Controls all external and key internal interfaces, reducing the chance of unauthenticated alternate channels.

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-03 full match
prevents

Requiring authentication on every channel and path directly eliminates alternate-path bypasses.

PR.AA-05 mostly match
prevents

Enforcing authorizations and least privilege across all access vectors prevents unauthenticated alternate paths.

PR.IR-01 mostly match
prevents

Protecting networks and environments from unauthorized logical access blocks bypass via undocumented channels.

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 can detect alternate-path bypasses but does not prevent them in production.

A.8.5 Secure authentication mostly match
degrades

Secure authentication control directly mitigates bypass by requiring strong, consistent authentication on all paths.

A.5.15 Access control partial match
prevents

Access control policy directly addresses alternate authentication paths by requiring all channels to enforce authentication.

A.5.17 Authentication information partial match
degrades

Authentication information management ensures credentials and mechanisms are consistently applied across all access paths.

A.5.18 Access rights partial match
prevents

Access rights provisioning and review prevent bypass via unmonitored or alternate channels.

A.8.2 Privileged access rights partial match
prevents

Privileged access rights control reduces risk of bypass through elevated or alternate paths.
