CCI-002760

The organization determines mean time to failure (MTTF) for organization-defined information system components in specific environments of operation.

Implementation Guidance

The organization being inspected/assessed determines through testing or research and documents the mean time to failure (MTTF) for any component within a system requiring high availability in specific environments of operation. DoD has defined the system components as any component within a system requiring high availability.

Validation Procedures

The organization conducting the inspection/assessment obtains and examines documented mean time to failure (MTTF) to ensure the organization being inspected/assessed has determined the mean time to failure (MTTF) for any component within a system requiring high availability in specific environments of operation. DoD has defined the system components as any component within a system requiring high availability.

Compelling Evidence

1.) Signed and dated System security plan with reference to section pertaining to mean time to failure (MTTF) to ensure the organization being inspected/assessed has determined the mean time to failure (MTTF) for any component within a system requiring high availability in specific environments of operation.
