03.08.01E Dual Authorization for Media Sanitization

Statement

Enforce dual authorization for the sanitization of {{ insert: param, A.03.08.01E.ODP.01 }}.

Guidance

Dual authorization is also known as two-person control. Dual authorization reduces risk related to insider threats, including adversaries who have obtained credentials. Organizations employ dual authorization to help ensure that the sanitization of system media cannot occur unless two technically qualified individuals conduct the designated task. Individuals who sanitize system media possess sufficient skills and expertise to determine whether the proposed sanitization reflects applicable federal and organizational standards, policies, and procedures. Dual authorization also helps to ensure that sanitization occurs as intended to protect against errors and false claims of having performed the sanitization actions. To reduce the risk of collusion, organizations consider rotating dual authorization duties to other individuals. Organizations consider the risks associated with implementing dual authorization when immediate responses are necessary to help ensure public and environmental safety. This requirement enhances SP 800-171 requirement 03.08.03.

Statement

• (includes preempt) Ensure that the threat event does not have an impact.

  • Reduce likelihood of occurrence and/or reduce likelihood of impact.

  • The adversary’s efforts or resources cannot be applied or are wasted.

• (includes exert) Make it more difficult for threat events to cause adverse impacts or consequences.

  • Reduce likelihood of impact and reduce level of impact.

  • Adversary activities are restricted in scope, fail to achieve full effect, do not take place in accordance with adversary timeline, or require greater resources than adversary had planned.
