SC-29(01) Virtualization Techniques
Control
Employ virtualization techniques to support the deployment of a diversity of operating systems and applications that are changed [Assignement: frequency].
Discussion
While frequent changes to operating systems and applications can pose significant configuration management challenges, the changes can result in an increased work factor for adversaries to conduct successful attacks. Changing virtual operating systems or applications, as opposed to changing actual operating systems or applications, provides virtual changes that impede attacker success while reducing configuration management efforts. Virtualization techniques can assist in isolating untrustworthy software or software of dubious provenance into confined execution environments.
Assessment Objective
virtualization techniques are employed to support the deployment of a diverse range of operating systems and applications that are changed [Assignement: frequency].
Assessment Method
Examine
System and communications protection policy
configuration management policy and procedures
system design documentation
system configuration settings and associated documentation
system architecture
list of operating systems and applications deployed using virtualization techniques
change control records
configuration management records
system audit records
system security plan
other relevant documents or records
Interview
System/network administrators
organizational personnel with information security responsibilities
organizational personnel with responsibilities for implementing approved virtualization techniques to the system
