Supports the processes that facilitate a smooth evolution, composition, and workforce transition of the design and implementation of changes to agency resources such as assets, methodologies, systems, or procedures. The overall accountability rating for this information classification is Low.
Confidentiality level = Low
The confidentiality impact level is the effect of unauthorized disclosure of lifecycle/change management information on the ability of responsible entities to execute processes that facilitate a smooth evolution, composition, and workforce transition of the design and implementation of changes to organizational resources such as assets, methodologies, systems, or procedures.
Known mitigating factors toward changing the confidentiality level
Unauthorized disclosure of some lifecycle/change management information can provide adversaries with intelligence information that may be useful in efforts to compromise the system. This can result in assignment of a moderate impact level to such information. Additionally, there are third party program mandates prohibiting unauthorized disclosure of trade secrets. Trade secrets will generally be assigned a moderate confidentiality impact level.
Integrity level = Moderate
The integrity impact level is based on the specific mission and the data supporting that mission, not on the time required to detect the modification or destruction of information. The consequences of undetected or unauthorized modification or destruction of lifecycle/change management information depends on the maximum aggregate sensitivity and criticality of the information and processes associated with the system.
Known mitigating factors toward changing the integrity level
The recommended integrity impact level can range from low to high to trade secret information (outside the scope of this guideline).
Availability level = Low
The availability impact level is based on the specific mission and the data supporting that mission, not on the time required to reestablish access to lifecycle/change management information. Functions and processes supported by most lifecycle/change management information are not time-critical. That is, temporary disruption of access to lifecycle/change management information will usually have only a limited adverse effect on organizational operations (including mission functions and public confidence in the organization), organizational assets, or individuals.
