Assessment Objective

Determine if:

• the types of changes to the system that are configuration-controlled are defined.
• proposed configuration-controlled changes to the system are reviewed with explicit consideration for security impacts.
• proposed configuration-controlled changes to the system are approved or disapproved with explicit consideration for security impacts.
• activities associated with configuration-controlled changes to the system are monitored.
• activities associated with configuration-controlled changes to the system are reviewed.
• approved configuration-controlled changes to the system are implemented.
• approved configuration-controlled changes to the system are documented.

Assessment Methods

Examine

• configuration management policy and procedures
• procedures for system configuration change control
• configuration management plan
• system architecture
• configuration settings
• change control records
• system audit records
• change control audit and review reports
• agenda, minutes, and documentation from configuration change control oversight meetings
• system security plan
• other relevant documents or records

Interview

• personnel with configuration change control responsibilities
• personnel with information security responsibilities
• members of change control board or similar
• system administrators

Test

• processes for configuration change control
• mechanisms that implement configuration change control
