Master Assessment Datasheet

Implementation Guidance

The organization being inspected/assessed defines within the security plan the security categorization of the information system including supporting rationale.

Validation Procedures

The organization conducting the inspection/assessment obtains and examines the security plan to ensure the organization being inspected/assessed defines within the security plan the security categorization of the information system including supporting rationale.
