NIST IR 7298 Revision 1, Glossary of Key Information Security Terms System Of Records – A group of any records under the control of any agency from which information is retrieved by the name of the individual or by some identifying number, symbol, or other identifying particular assigned to the individual. SOURCE: SP 800-122 System Owner – Person or organization having responsibility for the development, procurement, integration, modification, operation and maintenance, and/or final disposition of an information system. SOURCE: CNSSI-4009 System Profile – Detailed security description of the physical structure, equipment component, location, relationships, and general operating environment of an information system. SOURCE: CNSSI-4009 System Security – See Information System Security. System Security Plan – Formal document that provides an overview of the security requirements for the information system and describes the security controls in place or planned for meeting those requirements. SOURCE: SP 800-37; SP 800-53; SP 800-53A; SP 800-18; FIPS 200 The formal document prepared by the information system owner (or common security controls owner for inherited controls) that provides an overview of the security requirements for the system and describes the security controls in place or planned for meeting those requirements. The plan can also contain as supporting appendices or as references, other key security-related documents such as a risk assessment, privacy impact assessment, system interconnection agreements, contingency plan, security configurations, configuration management plan, and incident response plan. SOURCE: CNSSI-4009 System Software – The special software within the cryptographic boundary (e.g., operating system, compilers or utility programs) designed for a specific computer system or family of computer systems to facilitate the operation and maintenance of the computer system, associated programs, and data. SOURCE: FIPS 140-2 System-Specific Security Control – A security control for an information system that has not been designated as a common security control or the portion of a hybrid control that is to be implemented within an information system. SOURCE: SP 800-37; SP 800-53; SP 800-53A; CNSSI-4009 Systems Security Engineering – See Information Systems Security Engineering. Pg 188
NIST IR 7298 Revision 1, Glossary of Key Information Security Terms Systems Security Officer – See Information Systems Security Officer. Tabletop Exercise – A discussion-based exercise where personnel with roles and responsibilities in a particular IT plan meet in a classroom setting or in breakout groups to validate the content of the plan by discussing their roles during an emergency and their responses to a particular emergency situation. A facilitator initiates the discussion by presenting a scenario and asking questions based on the scenario. SOURCE: SP 800-84 Tactical Data – Information that requires protection from disclosure and modification for a limited duration as determined by the originator or information owner. SOURCE: CNSSI-4009 Tactical Edge – The platforms, sites, and personnel (U. S. military, allied, coalition partners, first responders) operating at lethal risk in a battle space or crisis environment characterized by 1) a dependence on information systems and connectivity for survival and mission success, 2) high threats to the operational readiness of both information systems and connectivity, and 3) users are fully engaged, highly stressed, and dependent on the availability, integrity, and transparency of their information systems. SOURCE: CNSSI-4009 Tailored Security Control Baseline – A set of security controls resulting from the application of tailoring guidance to the security control baseline. See Tailoring. SOURCE: SP 800-37; SP 800-53; SP 800-53A Tailoring – The process by which a security control baseline is modified based on: (i) the application of scoping guidance; (ii) the specification of compensating security controls, if needed; and (iii) the specification of organization-defined parameters in the security controls via explicit assignment and selection statements. SOURCE: SP 800-37; SP 800-53; SP 800-53A; CNSSI-4009 Tailoring (Assessment Procedures) – The process by which assessment procedures defined in Special Publication 800-53A are adjusted, or scoped, to match the characteristics of the information system under assessment, providing organizations with the flexibility needed to meet specific organizational requirements and to avoid overly-constrained assessment approaches. SOURCE: SP 800-53A Tampering – An intentional event resulting in modification of a system, its intended behavior, or data. SOURCE: CNSSI-4009 Pg 189
