Determining the scope of controls (e.g., assessment boundary) is different than determining control applicability. Do you know the difference?

The Unified Scoping Guide (USG) is a free resource to make control scoping more efficient, regardless of the type of sensitive / regulated data environment. You can download the latest version of the USG for free from: https://complianceforge.com/free-guides/unified-scoping-guide

This helps define the assessment scope boundary of the sensitive/regulated data where it is processed, stored and/or transmitted. This approach is applicable to the following sensitive/regulated data types:

  • Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)
  • Federal Contract Information (FCI)
  • Personally Identifiable Information (PD)
  • Protected Health Information (PHI)
  • Cardholder Data (CHD)
  • Intellectual Property (IP)
  • Attorney-Client Privilege Information (ACPI)
  • Student Educational Records (FERPA)
  • Export-Controlled Data (ITAR/EAR)
  • Critical Infrastructure Information (CII)
