NIST SP 800-53 – AC-3(11) – Access Enforcement | Restrict Access to Specific Information Types

Control(s)

Restrict access to data repositories containing [Assignment: organization-defined information types].

Additional Details (Discussion)

Restricting access to specific information is intended to provide flexibility regarding access control of specific information types within a system. For example, role-based access could be employed to allow access to only a specific type of personally identifiable information within a database rather than allowing access to the database in its entirety. Other examples include restricting access to cryptographic keys, authentication information, and selected system information.
