Check content

Review the documented procedures for approval and granting of DBA privileges. Review implementation evidence for the procedures. If procedures do not exist or evidence that they are followed does not exist, this is a Finding.

Fix text

Develop, document and implement procedures to ensure all DBA role assignments are authorized and assigned by the IAO. Include methods that provide evidence of approval in the procedures.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
