Assessment Objective

Determine if:

• CM-03a. the types of changes to the system that are configuration-controlled are determined and documented;
• CM-03b.
  • CM-03b.[01] proposed configuration-controlled changes to the system are reviewed;
  • CM-03b.[02] proposed configuration-controlled changes to the system are approved or disapproved with explicit consideration for security and privacy impact analyses;
• CM-03c. configuration change decisions associated with the system are documented;
• CM-03d. approved configuration-controlled changes to the system are implemented;
• CM-03e. records of configuration-controlled changes to the system are retained for [Assignment: time period];
• CM-03f.
  • CM-03f.[01] activities associated with configuration-controlled changes to the system are monitored;
  • CM-03f.[02] activities associated with configuration-controlled changes to the system are reviewed;
• CM-03g.
  • CM-03g.[01] configuration change control activities are coordinated and overseen by [Assignment: configuration change control element];
  • CM-03g.[02] the configuration control element convenes [Selection (one or more): [Assignment: frequency] ; when [Assignment: configuration change conditions] ].

Assessment Methods

Examine

• Configuration management policy
• procedures addressing system configuration change control
• configuration management plan
• system architecture and configuration documentation
• change control records
• system audit records
• change control audit and review reports
• agenda/minutes/documentation from configuration change control oversight meetings
• system security plan
• privacy plan
• privacy impact assessments
• system of records notices
• other relevant documents or records

Interview

• Organizational personnel with configuration change control responsibilities
• organizational personnel with information security and privacy responsibilities
• system/network administrators
• members of change control board or similar

Test

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