- Contextual name: 💼 CA-7 Continuous Monitoring (L)(M)(H)
- ID:
/frameworks/fedramp-high-security-controls/ca/07 - Located in: 💼 Assessment, Authorization, and Monitoring
Description
Develop a system-level continuous monitoring strategy and implement continuous monitoring in accordance with the organization-level continuous monitoring strategy that includes:
a. Establishing the following system-level metrics to be monitored: [Assignment: organization-defined system-level metrics];
b. Establishing [Assignment: organization-defined frequencies] for monitoring and [Assignment: organization-defined frequencies] for assessment of control effectiveness;
c. Ongoing control assessments in accordance with the continuous monitoring strategy;
d. Ongoing monitoring of system and organization-defined metrics in accordance with the continuous monitoring strategy;
e. Correlation and analysis of information generated by control assessments and monitoring;
f. Response actions to address results of the analysis of control assessment and monitoring information; and
g. Reporting the security and privacy status of the system to [FedRAMP Assignment: to include JAB/AO][Assignment: organization-defined frequency].
CA-7 Additional FedRAMP Requirements and Guidance:
Guidance: FedRAMP does not provide a template for the Continuous Monitoring Plan. CSPs should reference the FedRAMP Continuous Monitoring Strategy Guide when developing the Continuous Monitoring Plan.
Requirement: Operating System, Database, Web Application, Container, and Service Configuration Scans: at least monthly. All scans performed by Independent Assessor: at least annually.
Requirement: CSOs with more than one agency ATO must implement a collaborative Continuous Monitoring (Con Mon) approach described in the FedRAMP Guide for Multi-Agency Continuous Monitoring. This requirement applies to CSOs authorized via the Agency path as each agency customer is responsible for performing Con Mon oversight. It does not apply to CSPs authorized via the JAB path because the JAB performs Con Mon oversight.
