AC-3(11) Restrict Access to Specific Information Types
Control enhancement of AC-3 Access Enforcement
Control
Restrict access to data repositories containing [Assignment: information types].
Discussion
Restricting access to specific information is intended to provide flexibility regarding access control of specific information types within a system. For example, role-based access could be employed to allow access to only a specific type of personally identifiable information within a database rather than allowing access to the database in its entirety. Other examples include restricting access to cryptographic keys, authentication information, and selected system information.
