Assessment Objective

Determine if:

• SA-08(22)[01] [Assignment: systems or system components] implement the security design principle of accountability;
• SA-08(22)[02] [Assignment: systems or system components] implement the security design principle of traceability.

Assessment Methods

Examine

• System and services acquisition policy
• audit and accountability policy
• access control policy
• procedures addressing least privilege
• procedures addressing auditable events
• identification and authentication policy
• procedures addressing user identification and authentication
• procedures addressing the security design principle of accountability and traceability used in the specification, design, development, implementation, and modification of the system
• system design documentation
• system audit records
• system auditable events
• system configuration settings and associated documentation
• security and privacy requirements and specifications for the system
• system security and privacy architecture
• system security plan
• other relevant documents or records

Interview

• Organizational personnel with the responsibility for determining system security and privacy requirements
• organizational personnel with audit and accountability responsibilities
• organizational personnel with system specification, design, development, implementation, and modification responsibilities
• system developers
• organizational personnel with information security responsibilities

Test

• Organizational processes for applying the security design principle of accountability and traceability in system specification, design, development, implementation, and modification
• mechanisms supporting the application of the security design principle of accountability and traceability in system specification, design, development, implementation, and modification
• mechanisms implementing information system auditing
• mechanisms implementing least privilege functions
