Assessment Objective

Determine if:

• SI-06a.
  • SI-06a.[01] [Assignment: security functions] are verified to be operating correctly;
  • SI-06a.[02] [Assignment: privacy functions] are verified to be operating correctly;
• SI-06b.
  • SI-06b.[01] [Assignment: security functions] are verified [Selection (one or more): [Assignment: system transitional states] ; upon command by user with appropriate privilege; [Assignment: frequency] ];
  • SI-06b.[02] [Assignment: privacy functions] are verified [Selection (one or more): [Assignment: system transitional states] ; upon command by user with appropriate privilege; [Assignment: frequency] ];
• SI-06c.
  • SI-06c.[01] [Assignment: personnel or roles] is/are alerted to failed security verification tests;
  • SI-06c.[02] [Assignment: personnel or roles] is/are alerted to failed privacy verification tests;
• SI-06d. [Selection (one or more): shut the system down; restart the system; [Assignment: alternative action(s)] ] is/are initiated when anomalies are discovered.

Assessment Methods

Examine

• System and information integrity policy
• system and information integrity procedures
• procedures addressing security and privacy function verification
• system design documentation
• system configuration settings and associated documentation
• alerts/notifications of failed security verification tests
• list of system transition states requiring security functionality verification
• system audit records
• system security plan
• privacy plan
• other relevant documents or records

Interview

• Organizational personnel with security and privacy function verification responsibilities
• organizational personnel implementing, operating, and maintaining the system
• system/network administrators
• organizational personnel with information security and privacy responsibilities
• system developer

Test

• Organizational processes for security and privacy function verification
• mechanisms supporting and/or implementing the security and privacy function verification capability
