AC-16(04) Association of Attributes by Authorized Individuals

Control

Provide the capability to associate [Assignement: organization-defined security and privacy attributes] with [Assignement: organization-defined subjects and objects] by authorized individuals (or processes acting on behalf of individuals).

Discussion

Systems, in general, provide the capability for privileged users to assign security and privacy attributes to system-defined subjects (e.g., users) and objects (e.g., directories, files, and ports). Some systems provide additional capability for general users to assign security and privacy attributes to additional objects (e.g., files, emails). The association of attributes by authorized individuals is described in the design documentation. The support provided by systems can include prompting users to select security and privacy attributes to be associated with information objects, employing automated mechanisms to categorize information with attributes based on defined policies, or ensuring that the combination of the security or privacy attributes selected is valid. Organizations consider the creation, deletion, or modification of attributes when defining auditable events.

Assessment Objective

  1. authorized individuals (or processes acting on behalf of individuals) are provided with the capability to associate [Assignement: security attributes] with [Assignement: subjects];
  2. authorized individuals (or processes acting on behalf of individuals) are provided with the capability to associate [Assignement: security attributes] with [Assignement: objects];
  3. authorized individuals (or processes acting on behalf of individuals) are provided with the capability to associate [Assignement: privacy attributes] with [Assignement: subjects];
  4. authorized individuals (or processes acting on behalf of individuals) are provided with the capability to associate [Assignement: privacy attributes] with [Assignement: objects].

Assessment Method

Examine

Access control policy procedures addressing the association of security and privacy attributes to information system design documentation system configuration settings and associated documentation list of users authorized to associate security and privacy attributes to information system prompts for privileged users to select security and privacy attributes to be associated with information objects system audit records system security plan privacy plan other relevant documents or records

Interview

Organizational personnel with responsibilities for associating security and privacy attributes to information organizational personnel with information security and privacy responsibilities system developers
