SC-3(5)Security Function Isolation

Technical

>Control Description

SECURITY FUNCTION ISOLATION | LAYERED STRUCTURES The organization implements security functions as a layered structure minimizing interactions between layers of the design and avoiding any dependence by lower layers on the functionality or correctness of higher layers.

>Supplemental Guidance

The implementation of layered structures with minimized interactions among security functions and non-looping layers (i.e., lower-layer functions do not depend on higher-layer functions) further enables the isolation of security functions and management of complexity.
