SR-09(01) Multiple Stages of System Development Life Cycle

NIST SP 800-53 (controls) 5.2.0 against 5.1.1+u4

Title

Multiple Stages of System Development Life Cycle

Control

Employ anti-tamper technologies, tools, and techniques throughout the system development life cycle.

Discussion

The system development life cycle includes research and development, design, manufacturing, acquisition, delivery, integration, operations and maintenance, and disposal. Organizations use a combination of hardware and software techniques for tamper resistance and detection. Organizations use obfuscation and self-checking to make reverse engineering and modifications more difficult, time-consuming, and expensive for adversaries. The customization of systems and system components can make substitutions easier to detect and therefore limit damage.
