SC-27: PLATFORM-INDEPENDENT APPLICATIONS
NOT SELECTED FOR INDUSTRIAL CONTROL SYSTEMS
The information system includes: [Assignment: organization-defined platform-independent applications].
SUPPLEMENTAL GUIDANCE
Platforms are combinations of hardware and software used to run software applications. Platforms include: (i) operating systems; (ii) the underlying computer architectures, or (iii) both. Platform-independent applications are applications that run on multiple platforms. Such applications promote portability and reconstitution on different platforms, increasing the availability of critical functions within organizations while information systems with specific operating systems are under attack.
