CM-02(02) [H] Automation Support for Accuracy and Currency

Control

Maintain the currency, completeness, accuracy, and availability of the baseline configuration of the system using [Assignement: automated mechanisms].

Discussion

Automated mechanisms that help organizations maintain consistent baseline configurations for systems include configuration management tools, hardware, software, firmware inventory tools, and network management tools. Automated tools can be used at the organization level, mission and business process level, or system level on workstations, servers, notebook computers, network components, or mobile devices. Tools can be used to track version numbers on operating systems, applications, types of software installed, and current patch levels. Automation support for accuracy and currency can be satisfied by the implementation of [CM-8(2)](#cm-8.2) for organizations that combine system component inventory and baseline configuration activities.

Assessment Objective

  1. the currency of the baseline configuration of the system is maintained using [Assignement: automated mechanisms];
  2. the completeness of the baseline configuration of the system is maintained using [Assignement: automated mechanisms];
  3. the accuracy of the baseline configuration of the system is maintained using [Assignement: automated mechanisms];
  4. the availability of the baseline configuration of the system is maintained using [Assignement: automated mechanisms].

Assessment Method

Examine

Configuration management policy procedures addressing the baseline configuration of the system configuration management plan system design documentation system architecture and configuration documentation system configuration settings and associated documentation system component inventory configuration change control records system security plan other relevant documents or records
