Assessment Objectives

In addition to relevant policies, standards and procedures, the assessor shall examine, interview, and/or test to determine if appropriately scoped evidence exists to support the claim that:

• PES-16_A01 the location or site of the facility where the system resides is planned considering physical and environmental hazards.
  Assessment rigor: 1
  Origin: 53A_R5_PE-23a.
• PES-16_A02 for existing facilities, physical and environmental hazards are considered in the organizational risk management strategy.
  Assessment rigor: 1
  Origin: 53A_R5_PE-23b.
• PES-16_A03 physical and environmental hazards that could result in potential damage to system components within the facility are defined.
  Defined parameters: physical and environmental hazards identified during threat assessment
  Assessment rigor: 1
  Origin: 53A_R5_PE-18_ODP
• PES-16_A04 system components are positioned within the facility to minimize potential damage from physical and environmental hazards and to minimize the opportunity for unauthorized access.
  Assessment rigor: 1
  Origin: 53A_R5_PE-18

• 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/
