CCI-003185

The organization defines the independence criteria the independent agent must satisfy prior to verifying the correct implementation of the developer security assessment plan and the evidence produced during security testing/evaluation.

Implementation Guidance

The organization being inspected/assessed defines and documents the independence criteria the independent agent must satisfy prior to verifying the correct implementation of the developer security assessment plan and the evidence produced during security testing/evaluation. DoD has determined the independence criteria is not appropriate to define at the Enterprise level.

Validation Procedures

The organization conducting the inspection/assessment obtains and examines the documented independence criteria to ensure the organization being inspected/assessed defines the independence criteria the independent agent must satisfy prior to verifying the correct implementation of the developer security assessment plan and the evidence produced during security testing/evaluation. DoD has determined the independence criteria is not appropriate to define at the Enterprise level.

Compelling Evidence

1.) System security plan (SSP). 2.) System development life cycle (SDLC) documentation must define the independence criteria the independent agent must satisfy prior to verifying the correct implementation of the developer-created security assessment plan and the evidence produced during security testing/evaluation.
