ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question

While tailoring the NIST SP 800-53 Rev.5 moderate baseline for a new SaaS application, you confirm that AC-6(9) (audit of privileged actions) is fully implemented by the FedRAMP-authorized cloud service provider through its management plane. The system owner wants to mark the enhancement "not applicable." What is the BEST way to address this control during selection and tailoring?

  • Document AC-6(9) as an inherited control in the SSP and reference the provider's authorization package for evidence.

  • Remove AC-6(9) from the baseline because the enhancement is above the minimum requirements for moderate systems.

  • Formally accept the residual risk and leave AC-6(9) marked "not applicable" in the SSP.

  • List AC-6(9) as a compensating control and create a POA&M item for on-premises implementation at a later date.
