Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Establishing secure configuration settings for web components includes requiring appropriate SameSite attributes on sensitive cookies.

Proper SameSite settings on session cookies directly help protect the authenticity of communications sessions against cross-site misuse.

Requiring confidentiality protection for transmitted information forces use of HTTPS-only cookies via the Secure attribute, eliminating exposure of sensitive session data.

Setting the Secure attribute is a direct mechanism for protecting sensitive session data in transit over HTTPS.

PR.PS-01 mostly match
prevents

Enforcing hardened configuration baselines includes requiring the Secure flag on sensitive cookies.

PR.PS-06 mostly match

Secure SDLC practices explicitly require correct use of security attributes such as the cookie Secure flag.

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 can detect missing SameSite attributes but does not prevent the weakness.

mitigates

Use of cryptography control mandates encryption in transit, which HTTPS provides, but does not specifically require the Secure cookie attribute.

prevents

Application security requirements can include cookie security settings, but the control is broader and does not explicitly mandate the Secure attribute.

prevents

Secure coding practices directly prevent missing the Secure attribute on sensitive cookies, though the control covers many other coding issues.

degrades

Secure authentication control requires protection of session credentials, directly addressed by setting the Secure flag on sensitive cookies.
