Control Strategy AutoSuspendSensitiveDataFlow.Implementation.Runtime

URI: CSG-AutoSuspendSensitiveDataFlow-Implementation-Runtime

Package: CloudManagement

< prev | next >

Description: The sending of data Data from FlowsFrom to FlowsTo has been automatically disabled to prevent leaking of data. This strategy represents activation of a contingency plan at runtime, and can be enabled to discover what effect this would have on risk levels, allowing this to be used for decision support calculations. Activation at runtime requires FlowsFrom to be managed by a suitable adaptation framework. The Disabled Data Flow control should be deselected if and when the flow of data is enabled once again.

Blocked Threats (5)

DF.C.AC-iDF-VSC.3.2

Compromised or impersonated client Client reads data Data flowing from FlowsFrom to FlowsTo when sent from Service: if an attacker can compromise or impersonate Client, they can read Data sent by FlowsFrom to FlowsTo in messages from Service.

DF.C.AC-iDFVTC.2.6

Client Client on stolen host CHost reads the encrypted flow of Data from/via Service: if an attacker has possession of host CHost and can access client Client, they can they can access its cryptographic key and read data Data flowing to Client from FlowsFrom.

DF.C.AC-iDF-VTC.2.6

Client Client on stolen host CHost reads the encrypted flow of Data from/via Service: if an attacker has possession of host CHost and can access client Client, they can they can access its cryptographic key and read data Data flowing to Client from FlowsFrom.

DF.C.AC-iDFVTC.3.6

Compromised client Client reads the encrypted flow of Data from/via Service: if an attacker can compromise client Client, they can they can access its cryptographic key and read data Data flowing to Client from FlowsFrom.

DF.C.AC-iDF-VTC.3.6

Compromised client Client reads the encrypted flow of Data from/via Service: if an attacker can compromise client Client, they can they can access its cryptographic key and read data Data flowing to Client from FlowsFrom.

Triggers Threats (1)

DF.A.PDF.6.1

Loss of availability in the disabled flow of data Data from FlowsFrom to Process: the flow of Data between FlowsFrom to Process has been disabled to maintain security or prevent a breach of regulations, but as a result the data flow is now unavailable.
