Master Assessment Datasheet

Implementation Guidance

The organization being inspected/assessed conducts reviews of records documenting the proposed configuration controlled changes to each information system. The organization will maintain an audit trail of each proposed configuration controlled change. This action will be implemented by the CCB as defined in CM-3, CCI 1586.

Validation Procedures

The organization conducting the inspection/assessment obtains and examines the audit trail of a sampling of proposed configuration controlled changes to ensure the reviews are being conducted.

Compelling Evidence

1.) Signed and dated configuration management policies
