TVM-08: Vulnerability Prioritization
Vulnerability Prioritization
TVM-08: Is vulnerability remediation prioritized using a risk-based model from an industry-recognized framework?
Vulnerabilities should be prioritized in terms of their relative risk, importance, organizational impact, and urgency. When evaluating impact, consider exposure levels to applicable threats from the organization’s specific usage and/or implementation. When evaluating importance, consider the criticality and value of the affected assets. Finally, when assessing urgency, consider the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) ratings and timeframes, the relevance to current and ongoing threats, and the effort required for remediation.
Control implemented
Not applicable - A “N/A” answer indicates that the portion of the control in question is out of scope of the assessment. The “SSRM control ownership” column is to be left blank (e.g., greyed out), and optionally the CSP may explain why it is the case (“CSP Implementation Description”).
No - A “No” answer indicates that the portion of the control in question is not implemented, while in scope of the assessment. The CSP has to assign the implementation responsibility of the control to the relevant party under column “SSRM control ownership”, and optionally elaborate on the “why” (has not been implemented), and “what” has to be done for its implementation by that party.
Yes - A “Yes” answer indicates that the portion of the control in question is implemented. The CSP indicates the responsible and accountable parties (SSRM control ownership), and optionally elaborates on the implementation “how-to” per relevant party CSP and/or CSC.
Control ownership
CSP-owned - The CSP is entirely responsible and accountable for the CCM control implementation.
CSC-owned - The Cloud Service Customer (CSC) is entirely responsible and accountable for the CCM control implementation.
Third-party - The third-party CSP in the supply chain (e.g., an IaaS provider) is responsible for CCM control implementation, while the CSP is fully accountable.
Shared CSP and CSC - Both the CSP and CSC share CCM control implementation responsibility and accountability.
Shared CSP and third party - Any CCM control implementation responsibility is shared between CSP and the third party, but the CSP remains fully accountable.
