NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 NIST800-IA-6: IA-6 Authentication Feedback

Obscure feedback of authentication information during the authentication process to protect the information from possible exploitation and use by unauthorized individuals.

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 11 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.

ISO 27002:2022 · 2 controls

  • 5.17 Authentication information
  • 8.5 Secure authentication

C5 (Germany) · 1 control

  • C5-PSS-04 Error handling and Logging Mechanisms

CMMC 2.0 · 1 control

FedRAMP High · 1 control

  • IA-6 Authentication Feedback

FedRAMP Moderate · 1 control

  • IA-6 Authentication Feedback

ISO 27001:2022 · 1 control

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 IA - Identification and Authentication

You are reading one control. How much of NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 have you already done?

NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 NIST800-IA-6 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 your existing evidence covers. Hold ISO 27001:2022 and 163 of 1014 NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 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. 342 were rejected on the ISO 27001:2022 pair alone.
