IA-04(05) Dynamic Management

NIST SP 800-53 (controls) 5.2.0 against 5.2.0

Title

Dynamic Management

Control

Manage individual identifiers dynamically in accordance with [Assignment: dynamic identifier policy].

Discussion

In contrast to conventional approaches to identification that presume static accounts for preregistered users, many distributed systems establish identifiers at runtime for entities that were previously unknown. When identifiers are established at runtime for previously unknown entities, organizations can anticipate and provision for the dynamic establishment of identifiers. Pre-established trust relationships and mechanisms with appropriate authorities to validate credentials and related identifiers are essential.
