ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question
During control tailoring for a moderate-impact federal system that will create and email Controlled Technical Information (CTI), a form of CUI, you must ensure every electronic file is automatically tagged with the required CUI banner whenever it is created, stored, or transmitted. Which NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 control or control enhancement should you allocate to satisfy this requirement?
AC-16(1) Security and Privacy Attributes | Automated Marking
SC-12 Cryptographic Key Establishment and Management
AC-16 establishes the requirement to associate security and privacy attributes-such as CUI designations-with information in a system. Enhancement (1), Automated Marking, specifically requires the system to automatically generate and apply those markings when the information is created, processed, stored, or transmitted. MP-3 focuses on labeling physical or removable media but does not mandate automated tagging of individual electronic files. SC-12 addresses cryptographic key management rather than data marking. PL-4 defines user behavior rules and likewise does not create or enforce automated CUI banners. Therefore, AC-16(1) is the control enhancement that directly meets the automated CUI marking requirement.
