Australian Information Security Manual ISM-0912: Change and configuration management plan

Systems have a change and configuration management plan that includes: - the establishment and maintenance of authorised baseline configurations for systems - what constitutes routine and urgent changes to the configuration of systems - how changes to the configuration of systems will be requested, tracked and documented - who needs to be consulted prior to routine and urgent changes to the configuration of systems - who needs to approve routine and urgent changes to the configuration of systems - who needs to be notified of routine and urgent changes to the configuration of systems - what additional change management and configuration management processes and procedures need to be followed before, during and after routine and urgent changes to the configuration of systems.

This control maps to 5 controls across 3 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

  • NIST-CSF-ID.RA-07 Changes and exceptions are managed, assessed for risk impact, recorded, and tracked
  • NIST-CSF-PR.PS-01 Configuration management practices are established and applied
  • 6.3.6.C.01 6.3.6.C.01 Change management steps for TOP SECRET systems
  • 6.3.6.C.02 6.3.6.C.02 Change management steps for routine and urgent changes
