What else in your programme already covers this
This control maps to 44 controls across 16 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-GV.SC-05 Requirements to address cybersecurity risks in supply chains are established, prioritized, and integrated into contracts and other types of agreements with suppliers and other relevant third parties
NIST-CSF-ID.AM-02 Inventories of software, services, and systems managed by the organization are maintained
NIST-CSF-PR.PS-02 Software is maintained, replaced, and removed commensurate with risk
NIST-CSF-PR.PS-05 Installation and execution of unauthorized software are prevented
You are reading one control. How much of NIST SP 800-172 have you already done?
NIST SP 800-172 3.4.1e is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of NIST SP 800-172 your existing evidence covers. Hold NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 and 24 of 35 NIST SP 800-172 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. 5 were rejected on the NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 pair alone.
