Assessment rigor: 1
Origin: 53A_R5_IA-05(18)_ODP[01] - IAC-15.2_A02 password managers are employed to generate and manage passwords.
Assessment rigor: 1
Origin: 53A_R5_IA-05(18)(a) - IAC-15.2_A03 systems and system components that do not support multifactor authentication or complex account management are identified.
Assessment rigor: 3
Origin: 172A_3.5.2e[a] - IAC-15.2_A04 automated mechanisms for the generation, protection, rotation and management of passwords for systems and system components that do not support multifactor authentication or complex account management are identified.
Assessment rigor: 3
Origin: 172A_3.5.2e[b] - IAC-15.2_A05 automated mechanisms for the generation, protection, rotation and management of passwords for systems and system components that do not support multifactor authentication or complex account management are employed.
Assessment rigor: 3
Origin: 172A_3.5.2e[c] - IAC-15.2_A06 controls for protecting passwords are defined.
Assessment rigor: 3
Origin: 53A_R5_IA-05(18)_ODP[02] - IAC-15.2_A07 the passwords are protected using controls.
Assessment rigor: 3
Origin: 53A_R5_IA-05(18)(b) - IAC-15.2_A08 the frequency at which to update the list of commonly used, expected, or compromised passwords is defined.
Assessment rigor: 2
Origin: 171A_R3_A.03.05.07.ODP[01] - IAC-15.2_A09 a list of commonly used, expected, or compromised passwords is maintained.
Assessment rigor: 2
Origin: 171A_R3_A.03.05.07.a[01] - IAC-15.2_A10 a list of commonly used, expected, or compromised passwords is updated per an organization-defined frequency.
Defined parameters: at least quarterly
Assessment rigor: 3
Origin: SCF Created - IAC-15.2_A11 a list of commonly used, expected, or compromised passwords is updated when organizational passwords are suspected to have been compromised.
Assessment rigor: 2
Origin: 171A_R3_A.03.05.07.a[03] - IAC-15.2_A12 passwords are verified not to be found on the list of commonly used, expected, or compromised passwords when they are created or updated by users.
Assessment rigor: 2
Origin: 171A_R3_A.03.05.07.b - IAC-15.2_A13 a list of commonly used, expected, or compromised passwords is updated <A.03.05.07.ODP[01]: frequency>.
Defined parameters: at least quarterly
Assessment rigor: NIST 800-171
Origin: 171A_R3_A.03.05.07.a[02]

- Secure Controls Framework -
The Secure Controls Framework® (SCF)
"The SCF is the Common Controls Framework™ (CCF), the world's most comprehensive cybersecurity and data privacy metaframework - it is also free to use. The entire concept is building secure, compliant and resilient capabilities in the most efficient and cost-effective manner possible.
The SCF is more than just a unified control catalog, since its included content creates a playbook for Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) capabilities. Used globally by organizations of every size, the SCF is a robust and scalable solution for security, compliance and resilience controls. As a comprehensive security framework, the SCF maps 1,400+ controls across 200+ laws, regulations, and industry frameworks so you can implement once and comply everywhere.
Like it or not, cybersecurity is a protracted war on an asymmetric battlefield, where the threats are everywhere and as defenders we have to make the effort to work together to help improve cybersecurity and data privacy practices, since we all suffer when massive data breaches occur or when cyber attacks have physical impacts. Hackers share information on attack methods with other hackers, so why shouldn’t the good guys share information on how to best protect an organization? We decided to take action and make a difference, since we feel it is too important to wait for someone else to fix the problems that exist.
The SCF is made up of volunteers, mainly specialists within the cybersecurity profession, who focus on GRC and the cybersecurity side of data privacy. These are auditors, engineers, architects, incident responders, consultants and other specialists who live and breathe these topics on a daily basis. The end product is "expert-derived content" that makes up the SCF." https://securecontrolsframework.com/Terms & Conditions
