Assessment Objective

Determine if:

• CM-08(03)(a)
  • CM-08(03)(a)[01] the presence of unauthorized hardware within the system is detected using [Assignment: automated mechanisms] [Assignment: frequency];
  • CM-08(03)(a)[02] the presence of unauthorized software within the system is detected using [Assignment: automated mechanisms] [Assignment: frequency];
  • CM-08(03)(a)[03] the presence of unauthorized firmware within the system is detected using [Assignment: automated mechanisms] [Assignment: frequency];
• CM-08(03)(b)
  • CM-08(03)(b)[01] [Selection (one or more): disable network access by unauthorized components; isolate unauthorized components; notify [Assignment: personnel or roles] ] are taken when unauthorized hardware is detected;
  • CM-08(03)(b)[02] [Selection (one or more): disable network access by unauthorized components; isolate unauthorized components; notify [Assignment: personnel or roles] ] are taken when unauthorized software is detected;
  • CM-08(03)(b)[03] [Selection (one or more): disable network access by unauthorized components; isolate unauthorized components; notify [Assignment: personnel or roles] ] are taken when unauthorized firmware is detected.

Assessment Methods

Examine

• Configuration management policy
• procedures addressing system component inventory
• configuration management plan
• system design documentation
• system security plan
• system component inventory
• change control records
• alerts/notifications of unauthorized components within the system
• system monitoring records
• system maintenance records
• system audit records
• system security plan
• other relevant documents or records

Interview

• Organizational personnel with component inventory management responsibilities
• organizational personnel with responsibilities for managing the automated mechanisms implementing unauthorized system component detection
• organizational personnel with information security responsibilities
• system/network administrators
• system developers

Test

• Organizational processes for detection of unauthorized system components
• organizational processes for taking action when unauthorized system components are detected
• automated mechanisms supporting and/or implementing the detection of unauthorized system components
• automated mechanisms supporting and/or implementing actions taken when unauthorized system components are detected
