    Study Notes

    Mission and Business Focus

    • Identification of missions and business functions that the system supports is crucial.
    • Enables alignment with Cybersecurity Framework profiles and implementation tiers.

    System Stakeholders

    • Identification of stakeholders is essential for understanding their interests and impacts on the system.
    • Contributes to better asset and resource management within the cybersecurity framework.

    Asset Identification

    • Stakeholder assets must be identified and prioritized for effective risk management.
    • This process falls under the ID.AM category of the Cybersecurity Framework.

    Authorization Boundary

    • Establishes the system's authorization boundary, defining the scope of its governance and control.

    Information Types

    • Identification of information types processed, stored, and transmitted by the system is necessary for data governance.
    • Relates to the Cybersecurity Framework ID.AM-5.

    Information Life Cycle

    • Understanding all stages of the information life cycle for each type of information is vital.
    • This includes processes for data creation, storage, usage, sharing, archiving, and destruction.

    Risk Assessment—System

    • A comprehensive system-level risk assessment is required to identify and mitigate potential security risks.
    • Regular updates to the risk assessment are necessary to adapt to new threats and vulnerabilities.

    Requirements Definition

    • Defining and prioritizing security and privacy requirements ensures compliance and protects sensitive information.
    • Relates to governance as per Cybersecurity Framework ID.GV and PR.IP.

    Enterprise Architecture

    • Determination of the system's placement within the enterprise architecture enhances strategic alignment and coverage.

    Requirements Allocation

    • Security and privacy requirements must be allocated to the system and its operating environment for effective implementation.
    • This ensures a holistic approach to managing cybersecurity risks.

    System Registration

    • Registering the system facilitates management, accountability, coordination, and oversight.
    • Essential for maintaining operational integrity and compliance within the organization.
