Assessment rigor: 1
Origin: SCF Created - VPM-06.2_A02 a time period is defined to seek out new, applicable threats and vulnerabilities.
Defined parameters: at least annually
Assessment rigor: 1
Origin: SCF Created - VPM-06.2_A03 a capability exists to respond to new threats and vulnerabilities on an ongoing basis.
Assessment rigor: 1
Origin: SCF Created - VPM-06.2_A04 system vulnerabilities are remediated within organization-defined response times.
Defined parameters: no more than 30 days for critical and high severity vulnerabilities; no more than 90 days for medium and low severity vulnerabilities
Assessment rigor: 1
Origin: SCF Created - VPM-06.2_A05 system vulnerabilities are remediated within <A.03.11.02.ODP[03]: response times>.
Defined parameters: thirty (30) days from date of discovery for high-risk vulnerabilities (including both critical and high); 90 days from date of discovery for moderate-risk vulnerabilities; and 180 days from date of discovery for low-risk vulnerabilities

- 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
