Rule Text
The application performing organization-defined security functions must verify correct operation of security functions.
Description
Discussion Text
Without verification, security functions may not operate correctly and this failure may go unnoticed.
Security function is defined as the hardware, software, and/or firmware of the information system responsible for enforcing the system security policy and supporting the isolation of code and data on which the protection is based. Security functionality includes, but is not limited to, establishing system accounts, configuring access authorizations (i.e., permissions, privileges), setting events to be audited, and setting intrusion detection parameters.
This requirement applies to applications performing security functions and security function verification/testing.
