PR.DS Data security

Data Security: protecting data at rest, in transit and in use, and backups; four Subcategories (PR.DS-01, PR.DS-02, PR.DS-10 and PR.DS-11).

PR.DS-01 Data at rest

Protecting stored data with encryption, signatures and hashes, full disk encryption on endpoints, software signature validation and removable media controls.

PR.DS-02 Data in transit

Protecting data in transit with encryption and signatures, blocking or encrypting outbound sensitive data, blocking personal email and file sharing, and keeping production data out of non-production environments.

PR.DS-10 Data in use

Protecting data while it is processed: removing confidential data from memory and processors once it is no longer needed and isolating it from other users and processes on the same platform.

PR.DS-11 Backups

Creating, protecting, maintaining and testing backups: near-real-time backup of critical data, restore tests at least annually, offline and offsite copies and geographic separation.
