ac-17.4 - [catalog] Privileged Commands and Access
Control Statement
-
[a] Authorize the execution of privileged commands and access to security-relevant information via remote access only in a format that provides assessable evidence and for the following needs: organization-defined needs ; and
-
[b] Document the rationale for remote access in the security plan for the system.
Control guidance
Remote access to systems represents a significant potential vulnerability that can be exploited by adversaries. As such, restricting the execution of privileged commands and access to security-relevant information via remote access reduces the exposure of the organization and the susceptibility to threats by adversaries to the remote access capability.
Control assessment-objective
the execution of privileged commands via remote access is authorized only in a format that provides assessable evidence; access to security-relevant information via remote access is authorized only in a format that provides assessable evidence; the execution of privileged commands via remote access is authorized only for the following needs: needs requiring remote access; access to security-relevant information via remote access is authorized only for the following needs: needs requiring remote access; the rationale for remote access is documented in the security plan for the system.
