NIST-SC-39(1) Hardware Separation

Official page ↗
Framework
NIST SP 800-53 rev5 (5.2.0)
Family
SC System and Communications Protection
Control
SC-39(1)

Control statement

Implement hardware separation mechanisms to facilitate process isolation.

Discussion

Hardware-based separation of system processes is generally less susceptible to compromise than software-based separation, thus providing greater assurance that the separation will be enforced. Hardware separation mechanisms include hardware memory management.
