Control Description
Ensure publicly accessible systems do not contain specified information.
Assessment Objective
Verify that authorized individuals are trained, publicly accessible content is reviewed for specified information, and any found is removed.
Assessment Scope
This control includes 3 determination statements that assessors evaluate during a CPCSC assessment. Each determination must be satisfied with documented evidence to demonstrate control effectiveness.
CPCSC Context
This is one of the 13 controls required for CPCSC Level 1 self-assessment, mandatory from April 2026 for all Department of National Defence (DND) contract awards. Level 1 is a self-attestation — no third-party assessor is required.
How Solymus Helps
Solymus maps your evidence directly to ITSP 03.01.22, providing tamper-evident, KMS-signed receipts for every artifact you upload. The platform generates audit-ready evidence packages with per-artifact verification URLs that assessors can independently validate.
Level 1 is free for a limited time — start your self-assessment today and build a cryptographic evidence chain before the April 2026 deadline.
