CCI-002890

The information system implements cryptographic mechanisms to protect the integrity of nonlocal maintenance and diagnostic communications.

Implementation Guidance

The organization being inspected/assessed configures the information system to implement cryptographic mechanisms to protect the integrity of nonlocal maintenance and diagnostic communications. For information system components that have applicable STIGs or SRGs, the organization being inspected/assessed must comply with the STIG/SRG guidance that pertains to CCI 2890.

Validation Procedures

The organization conducting the inspection/assessment examines the information system to ensure the organization being inspected/assessed configures the information system to implement cryptographic mechanisms to protect the integrity of nonlocal maintenance and diagnostic communications. For information system components that have applicable STIGs or SRGs, the organization conducting the inspection/assessment evaluates the components to ensure that the organization being inspected/assessed has configured the information system in compliance with the applicable STIGs and SRGs pertaining to CCI 2890.

Compelling Evidence
