ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question
While documenting the control baseline for a federal information system categorized as "moderate impact" under FIPS 199, the ISSO must identify controls that are added at the moderate level and therefore are not required for a low-impact system. Which of the following NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 controls meets that definition and must be included in the moderate-impact baseline without tailoring it out?
The moderate-impact baseline in NIST SP 800-53B adds AC-17 Remote Access to address the risk that remote connectivity poses to systems whose compromise could have a serious adverse effect on an agency's operations, assets, or individuals. AC-17 is absent from the low-impact baseline, so it represents an additional, mandatory safeguard when the impact level rises to moderate. The other controls listed are already required at the low-impact level and therefore do not illustrate the "added" requirement specified in the question.
