This control maps to 36 controls across 19 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.
6.2.1 Bespoke and custom software are developed securely, as follows: • Based on industry standards and/or best practices for secure development. • In accordance with PCI DSS (for example, secure authentication and logging). • Incorporating
6.3.1 Security vulnerabilities are identified and managed as follows: • New security vulnerabilities are identified using industry-recognized sources for security vulnerability information, including alerts from international and national computer emergency response teams (CERTs). • Vulnerabilities
6.5.1 Changes to all system components in the production environment are made according to established procedures that include: • Reason for, and description of, the change. • Documentation of security impact. • Documented change approval
NIST800-SA-17 Developer Security and Privacy Architecture and Design. Require the developer of the system, system component, or system service to produce a design specification and security and privacy architecture that: Is consistent with the organization's
NIST800-SA-8 Security and privacy engineering principles
NIST-CSF-PR.PS-06 Secure software development practices are integrated, and their performance is monitored throughout the software development life cycle
You are reading one control. How much of FedRAMP Moderate have you already done?
FedRAMP Moderate SA-8 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.
