Control	Description

AC-3	The information system enforces approved authorizations for logical access to information and system resources in accordance with applicable access control policies.
AU-2	The organization: AU-2a.: Determines that the information system is capable of auditing the following events: [Assignment: organization-defined auditable events]; AU-2b.: Coordinates the security audit function with other organizational entities requiring audit-related information to enhance mutual support and to help guide the selection of auditable events; AU-2c.: Provides a rationale for why the auditable events are deemed to be adequate to support after-the-fact investigations of security incidents; and AU-2d.: Determines that the following events are to be audited within the information system: [Assignment: organization-defined audited events (the subset of the auditable events defined in AU-2 a.) along with the frequency of (or situation requiring) auditing for each identified event].
SI-4	The organization: SI-4a.: Monitors the information system to detect: SI-4a.1.: Attacks and indicators of potential attacks in accordance with [Assignment: organization-defined monitoring objectives]; and SI-4a.2.: Unauthorized local, network, and remote connections; SI-4b.: Identifies unauthorized use of the information system through [Assignment: organization-defined techniques and methods]; SI-4c.: Deploys monitoring devices: SI-4c.1.: Strategically within the information system to collect organization-determined essential information; and SI-4c.2.: At ad hoc locations within the system to track specific types of transactions of interest to the organization; SI-4d.: Protects information obtained from intrusion-monitoring tools from unauthorized access, modification, and deletion; SI-4e.: Heightens the level of information system monitoring activity whenever there is an indication of increased risk to organizational operations and assets, individuals, other organizations, or the Nation based on law enforcement information, intelligence information, or other credible sources of information; SI-4f.: Obtains legal opinion with regard to information system monitoring activities in accordance with applicable federal laws, Executive Orders, directives, policies, or regulations; and SI-4g.: Provides [Assignment: organization-defined information system monitoring information] to [Assignment: organization-defined personnel or roles] [Selection (one or more): as needed; [Assignment: organization-defined frequency]].
