SI-13(01) Transferring Component Responsibilities

NIST SP 800-53 (controls) 5.1.1+u4

first version loaded SI part of SI-13

Title

Transferring Component Responsibilities

Control

Take system components out of service by transferring component responsibilities to substitute components no later than [Assignment: fraction or percentage] of mean time to failure.

Discussion

Transferring primary system component responsibilities to other substitute components prior to primary component failure is important to reduce the risk of degraded or debilitated mission or business functions. Making such transfers based on a percentage of mean time to failure allows organizations to be proactive based on their risk tolerance. However, the premature replacement of system components can result in the increased cost of system operations.

Parameters

si-13.01_odp: fraction or percentage

Assessment objective

SI-13(01) system components are taken out of service by transferring component responsibilities to substitute components no later than [Assignment: fraction or percentage] of mean time to failure.
