CP-10(6) Component Protection

Name: CP-10(6)_component-protection
Author: CyberStrikeus

Enhancement of: CP-10

High-Level Description

Family: Contingency Planning (CP) Framework: NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5

Protection of system recovery and reconstitution components (i.e., hardware, firmware, and software) includes physical and technical controls. Backup and restoration components used for recovery and reconstitution include router tables, compilers, and other system software.

What to Check

Verify CP-10(6) Component Protection is documented in SSP
Confirm control is operating effectively
Review evidence of continuous monitoring for CP-10(6)
Verify enhancement builds upon base control CP-10

How to Test

Step 1: Review Documentation

Examine the System Security Plan (SSP) and related artifacts for CP-10(6) implementation details. Verify the organization has documented how this control is satisfied.

Step 2: Validate Implementation

# For cloud environments, use cloud-audit-mcp tools
# For on-premises, review system configurations directly

# Example: Check if account management policies exist
grep -r "account.management\|access.control" /etc/security/ 2>/dev/null

Step 3: Test Operating Effectiveness

Verify the control is actively functioning, not just documented. Check logs, configurations, and operational evidence.
