Information Systems and Organizations<br />

FAMILY: MEDIA PROTECTION<br />

MP-1 MEDIA PROTECTION POLICY AND PROCEDURES [BACK TO SCRM CONTROL]<br />

Control: The organization:<br />

a. Develops, documents, and disseminates to [Assignment: organization-defined personnel or roles]:<br />

1. A media protection policy that addresses purpose, scope, roles, responsibilities, management<br />

commitment, coordination among organizational entities, and compliance; and<br />

2. Procedures to facilitate the implementation of the media protection policy and associated media<br />

protection controls; and<br />

b. Reviews and updates the current:<br />

Media protection policy [Assignment: organization-defined frequency]; and<br />

1. Media protection procedures [Assignment: organization-defined frequency].<br />

Supplemental Guidance: This control addresses the establishment of policy and procedures for the effective<br />

implementation of selected security controls and control enhancements in the MP family. Policy and<br />

procedures reflect applicable federal laws, Executive Orders, directives, regulations, policies, standards,<br />

and guidance. Security program policies and procedures at the organization level may make the need for<br />

system-specific policies and procedures unnecessary. The policy can be included as part of the general<br />

information security policy for organizations or conversely, can be represented by multiple policies<br />

reflecting the complex nature of certain organizations. The procedures can be established for the security<br />

program in general and for particular information systems, if needed. The organizational risk management<br />

strategy is a key factor in establishing policy and procedures. Related control: PM-9.<br />

Control Enhancements: None.<br />

MP-5 MEDIA TRANSPORT [BACK TO SCRM CONTROL]<br />

Control: The organization:<br />

a. Protects and controls [Assignment: organization-defined types of information system media] during<br />

transport outside of controlled areas using [Assignment: organization-defined security safeguards];<br />

b. Maintains accountability for information system media during transport outside of controlled areas;<br />

c. Documents activities associated with the transport of information system media; and<br />

d. Restricts the activities associated with the transport of information system media to authorized<br />

personnel.<br />

Supplemental Guidance: Information system media includes both digital and non-digital media. Digital media<br />

includes, for example, diskettes, magnetic tapes, external/removable hard disk drives, flash drives, compact<br />

disks, and digital video disks. Non-digital media includes, for example, paper and microfilm. This control<br />

also applies to mobile devices with information storage capability (e.g., smart phones, tablets, E-readers)<br />

that are transported outside of controlled areas. Controlled areas are areas or spaces for which organizations<br />

provide sufficient physical and/or procedural safeguards to meet the requirements established for protecting<br />

information and/or information systems.<br />

Physical and technical safeguards for media are commensurate with the security category or classification<br />

of the information residing on the media. Safeguards to protect media during transport include, for<br />
