What else in your programme already covers this
This control maps to 45 controls across 15 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.
4.2.1.1 Inventory of trusted keys and certificates
3.6.1 Procedures are defined and implemented to protect cryptographic keys used to protect stored account data against disclosure and misuse that include: • Access to keys is restricted to the fewest number of custodians necessary.
3.7.1 Key-management policies and procedures are implemented to include generation of strong cryptographic keys used to protect stored account data
You are reading one control. How much of FedRAMP Moderate have you already done?
FedRAMP Moderate SC-12 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.
