CCI-002929

Defines hardware components within the system for which to employ organization-defined security safeguards to detect and prevent physical tampering or alteration.

Implementation Guidance

Determine if [PE-03(05)_ODP[01]; anti-tamper technologies to be employed are defined] are employed to [PE-03(05)_ODP[02]; one or more of the following PARAMETER VALUES is/are selected: {detect; prevent}] physical tampering or alteration of [PE-03(05)_ODP[03]; hardware components to be protected from physical tampering or alteration are defined] within the system.

Validation Procedures

Examine: [SELECT FROM: Physical and environmental protection policy; procedures addressing physical access control; list of security safeguards to detect/prevent physical tampering or alteration of system hardware components; system security plan; other relevant documents or records]. Interview: [SELECT FROM: Organizational personnel with physical access control responsibilities; organizational personnel with information security responsibilities]. Test: [SELECT FROM: Organizational processes to detect/prevent physical tampering or alteration of system hardware components; mechanisms/security safeguards supporting and/or implementing the detection/prevention of physical tampering/alternation of system hardware components].
