IA-07 Cryptographic Module Authenticationia-7
Whether an AWS call fetches evidence for this control, and what to run. Its Rev5 baselines, the indicators that reach it and the FedRAMP guidance attached to it open below.
Nothing names itNo recipe names IA-07. 4 reach an indicator it shares, which is adjacency and not coverage — worth reading, not worth recording as evidence for this control.
Collect evidence (0)
Authored AWS recipes whose output is evidence for IA-07. This mapping is this project’s opinion (overlay v3.0.0), versioned separately from the dataset — the upstream FedRAMP rules name none of these tools.
No authored recipe names IA-07. The nearest authored work is below.
The same shape as SC-13, which the overlay already rates partial: KMS and CloudHSM are enumerable and the FIPS endpoints in use are checkable, but the module's FIPS 140 validation is a certificate that is cited, never measured.
A recipe would call:
This project’s assessment (automation register v0.9.0, reviewed 2026-08-04), versioned separately from the dataset and from the evidence overlays. It is an opinion about the AWS surface on that date, and the surface moves.
The KSI that reaches it is KSI-IAM-JIT — that is where the authoring would land. Browse /collect for the whole authored corpus.
Reaches the same indicator, not IA-07
These recipes prove a KSI that reaches it. None of them claims IA-07 — treat them as neighbours worth reading, not as coverage.
- Active unused-access findings identifying IAM roles, access keys, console passwords, and service/action-level permissions that have not been used within the configured age, driving right-sizing and removal via KSI-IAM-JIT
- Documented just-in-time / break-glass privilege-elevation process backed by IAM Identity Center permission sets and account assignments, showing privileged access is role/attribute-based, time-bound, and approval-gated rather than standing via KSI-IAM-JIT
- The enforced half of who may change what: the service control policy type actually enabled in the organization root, the customer-authored SCPs and the roots, OUs and accounts each one is attached to, and the permissions boundary carried by every principal your own tagging marks as a change authority via KSI-IAM-JIT
- Every identifier the account has issued, with the date it was assigned and the AWS-generated unique id behind it; the workforce identifiers issued through IAM Identity Center and the external issuer each one came from; and the CloudTrail record of identifiers being deleted, which is the only dated evidence of a name becoming free to reuse via KSI-IAM-JIT
What NIST requires of IA-07
The control statement from NIST 800-53 Rev5, verbatim. Square brackets are organization-defined parameters — yours to set, not FedRAMP's to dictate.
Implement mechanisms for authentication to a cryptographic module that meet the requirements of applicable laws, executive orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidelines for such authentication.
NIST SP 800-53 Rev5 catalog 5.2.0, from usnistgov/oscal-content at 78650f0. The FedRAMP dataset carries no control text; this is borrowed and pinned.
Rev5 baseline membership
Membership is the whole relationship — a baseline is a set of control ids. Class A carries no baseline at all. The Low/Moderate/High labels are an interpretation from control counts, not a dataset fact.
KSI indicators reaching this control (1)
Under 20x, these indicators are how this control is demonstrated — automated KSI evidence stands in for narrative control evidence.
Pages exist for the 209 controls reached by at least one KSI. Baseline-only controls are the orphans on /coverage. Control titles and full text live in the NIST catalog, not this dataset.
