03.13.06E Platform-Independent Applications

Statement

Include within organizational systems the following platform independent applications: {{ insert: param, A.03.13.06E.ODP.01 }} .

Guidance

Platforms are the hardware, software, and firmware components used to execute the organization’s software applications. Platforms include operating systems, the underlying computer architectures, or both. Platform-independent applications are applications with the capability to execute on multiple platforms. Such applications promote portability and reconstitution on different platforms. The portability of applications and the ability to reconstitute applications on different platforms increase the availability of mission-essential functions within organizations when systems with specific operating systems are under attack. This requirement does not enhance a specific requirement in SP 800-171 but can be used to strengthen the protection of CUI associated with critical programs or high value assets.

Statement

• (includes shorten and reduce) Restrict the consequences of realized threat events by limiting the damage or effects they cause in terms of time, system resources, and/or mission or business impacts.

  • Reduce level of impact and reduce likelihood of impact of subsequent events in the same threat scenario.

  • The adversary’s effectiveness is restricted.
