Efficient CMMC Scoping
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)
