Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and code analysis directly locate calls to unsafe functions.
Documented standards and tools can explicitly disallow dangerous functions during development.
Engineering principles can mandate safe APIs and ban dangerous functions at design time.

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.
Secure SDLC practices directly require avoiding or safely wrapping dangerous functions during development.

Security testing can surface instances of dangerous functions but does not prevent their introduction.
Developer security awareness training can teach safe alternatives to risky functions.
Secure SDLC processes include code review and static analysis that can detect use of risky functions.
Secure coding standards explicitly ban or restrict dangerous functions such as strcpy, gets, or system.
Controlled software installation reduces exposure to unsafe third-party libraries that may contain dangerous calls.
