ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question
During RMF Step 5 (Authorize), you are verifying that the cloud system's authorization package is complete before sending it to the authorizing official. Which set of artifacts represents the minimum required core documents that must be included?
System Security Plan, Security Assessment Report, Plan of Action and Milestones
Security Assessment Plan, Security Assessment Report, Configuration Management Plan
Risk Assessment Report, Plan of Action and Milestones, Incident Response Plan
Security Categorization Report, System Security Plan, Continuous Monitoring Strategy
NIST SP 800-37 Rev. 2 defines the authorization package as containing three core artifacts: the System Security Plan (SSP), the Security Assessment Report (SAR), and the Plan of Action and Milestones (POA&M). The SSP describes the system and implemented controls, the SAR documents the assessor's findings on control effectiveness, and the POA&M lists any deficiencies along with planned remediation. Together these provide the information an authorizing official needs to render a risk-based decision. The other answer sets omit at least one of these required items or substitute supplemental documents that, while useful, are not part of the minimum package.
