Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Requires digital signature verification before component installation, directly stopping execution of code downloaded without integrity checks.

Least privilege directly requires that only the minimal necessary privileges are assigned to each actor.

Employs integrity verification tools that can identify missing or failed checks on downloaded software after the fact.

Requires documented, valid provenance for components, preventing acceptance of code from outside the trusted sphere.

Account management defines and authorizes the exact privileges granted to each account or role.

Enforces only the authorizations that were assigned, so correct assignment is a prerequisite.

prevents

The access-rights control governs the entire lifecycle of privilege assignment, directly eliminating incorrect assignments.

prevents

By requiring suppliers to propagate security requirements and to disclose component provenance, the control limits the inclusion of functionality obtained from untrusted third-party sources without oversight.

prevents

Privileged-access-rights control explicitly requires least-privilege assignment and ongoing validation, directly mitigating CWE-266.

prevents

Access control policy directly prevents incorrect privilege assignment by defining who may receive which rights.

mitigates

Segregation of duties reduces blast radius of any single incorrect privilege but does not prevent the assignment itself.

mitigates

Restricting privileged utility programs limits exposure from over-privileged accounts but does not address how privileges are assigned.
