Protection of Devices With PKI Keys, v1.0

Addresses the requirement for the strength of the security controls shall protect the device's hardware, software, and the cryptographic token and its activation data from compromise.
NOTE:If an assessment step references organization-defined elements (E.g. <organization-defined personnel or roles>, <organization-defined frequency>, etc.), corresponding citations/excerpts must be provided to confirm that the organization has established and documented these values and that they apply as referenced in the conformance criteria.

Similarly, if a "Selection" among multiple options (e.g. [Selection (one or more): as needed; ]) is specified, evidence must be provided to establish that the option(s) implemented by the organization have been defined and documented.

The assessment step shall not be marked as satisfied without this evidence.

Assessment Step

1
Protection of Devices With PKI Keys (ProtectionofDevicesWithPKIKeys)
Does the organization ensure that the strength of security controls in place for devices employing PKI keys protect the device's hardware, software, cryptographic token, and activation data from compromise?
Artifact
A1
Provide evidence (e.g. organizational policies, procedures, compliance/assessment reports, etc.) that support the assessor's response to this assessment step.
If conformance criteria reference organization-defined elements (e.g. <organization-defined personnel or roles>, <organization-defined frequency>, etc.), these values must be defined and documented by the organization.

Similarly, if the criteria specify a "Selection" among multiple options (e.g. [Selection (one or more): as needed; ]), the option(s) implemented by the organization must also be defined and documented.

Conformance Criteria (1)

C1
The strength of the security controls shall protect the device's hardware, software, and the cryptographic token and its activation data from compromise.
