Security Requirements for Protecting CUI Purpose Recommended security requirements for protecting the confidentiality of CUI: (1) when the CUI is resident in a nonfederal system and organization; (2) when the nonfederal organization is not collecting or maintaining information on behalf of a federal agency or using or operating a system on behalf of an agency; and (3) where there are no specific safeguarding requirements for protecting the confidentiality of CUI prescribed by the authorizing law, regulation, or governmentwide policy for the CUI category listed in the CUI...
Accessing Security Requirements for Controlled Unclassified Information Purpose Assessment procedures and a methodology that can be employed to conduct assessments of the CUI security requirements in NIST SP 800-171. Scope A system security plan describes how the SP 800-171 security requirements are met. The plan describes the system boundary; the environment in which the system operates; how the requirements are implemented; and the relationships with or connections to other systems. The scope of the assessments conducted using the procedures described in SP 800-171A are guided and...
