Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
AC-12 directly requires automatic session termination after a defined period, structurally preventing reuse of expired session identifiers.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
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.
Credential lifecycle management directly includes enforcing session expiration to prevent reuse.
Authorization policy enforcement and review covers terminating stale sessions to limit access scope.
Authentication mechanisms can incorporate session timeout checks but do not inherently address expiration policy.
