What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 19 controls across 10 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 SP 800-53 Rev 5 · 4 controls

PCI DSS 4.0 · 4 controls

  • 11.3.1.2 Authenticated internal scans
  • 7.2.4 All user accounts and related access privileges, including third-party/vendor accounts, are reviewed as follows: • At least once every six months. • To ensure user accounts and access remain appropriate based on job function.
  • 7.2.5 All application and system accounts and related access privileges are assigned and managed as follows: • Based on the least privileges necessary for the operability of the system or application. • Access is limited
  • 7.3.1 An access control system(s) is in place that restricts access based on a user's need to know and covers all system components

SOC 2 · 3 controls

  • SOC2-CC6.1 Implements logical access security software, infrastructure and architectures over protected information assets
  • SOC2-CC6.2 Prior to granting access, registration and authorization processes are established
  • SOC2-CC6.3 Role-based access and least privilege are enforced

ISO 27002:2022 · 2 controls

  • 8.2 Privileged access rights
  • 8.8 Management of technical vulnerabilities
  • PV-5 Perform vulnerability assessments

C5 (Germany) · 1 control

  • C5-OPS-18 Managing Vulnerabilities, Malfunctions and Errors - Concept

CIS Controls v8 · 1 control

  • CIS-7.5 Perform Automated Vulnerability Scans of Internal Enterprise Assets

CMMC 2.0 · 1 control

ISO 27001:2022 · 1 control

  • 8.2 Privileged access rights

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.

Other controls in RA - Risk Assessment

You are reading one control. How much of FedRAMP Moderate have you already done?

FedRAMP Moderate RA-5(5) is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of FedRAMP Moderate your existing evidence covers. Hold ISO 27002:2022 and 182 of 323 FedRAMP Moderate controls already carry evidence.

Each report names every control your existing framework evidences, every one it does not, the reasoning behind each claim, and the claims that were argued against and rejected. 348 were rejected on the ISO 27002:2022 pair alone.
