ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question
Your agency categorizes a new national-security system as high-impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. When building the security plan, which approach correctly applies NIST SP 800-53B requirements for establishing the high-impact control baseline?
Apply only catalog controls designated as priority 1 (P1) for high-impact systems.
Implement all controls and enhancements in the high baseline, removing only those formally tailored out and documented.
Deploy only the controls shared by all three baselines, adding the rest during continuous monitoring.
Start with the low-impact baseline and customize it because the high rating is driven solely by confidentiality.
NIST SP 800-53B instructs organizations to begin with the entire high-impact baseline-this includes every control and enhancement identified for high systems. Tailoring is permitted, but any control removed or downgraded must be justified and documented in the System Security Plan. Simply implementing common controls, selecting only P1 items, or starting from the low baseline contradicts the guidance because those methods omit protections that the high-impact baseline presumes necessary to prevent severe or catastrophic harm.
