SI-2(3) Time to Remediate Flaws and Benchmarks for Corrective Actions
Control enhancement of SI-2 Flaw Remediation
Control
Measure the time between flaw identification and flaw remediation; and
Establish the following benchmarks for taking corrective actions: [Assignment: benchmarks].
Discussion
Organizations determine the time it takes on average to correct system flaws after such flaws have been identified and subsequently establish organizational benchmarks (i.e., time frames) for taking corrective actions. Benchmarks can be established by the type of flaw or the severity of the potential vulnerability if the flaw can be exploited.

We assess where you stand against this control, document the gap, and build the remediation plan your auditor and your board will both accept.
