What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 2 controls across 1 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 Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 · 2 controls

  • NIST-CSF-PR.AA-01 Identities and credentials for authorized users, services, and hardware are managed by the organization
  • NIST-CSF-PR.AA-05 Access permissions, entitlements, and authorizations are defined in a policy, managed, enforced, and reviewed, and incorporate the principles of least privilege and separation of duties

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.
