Who does this work

8 NICE work roles and 8 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Check Text (C-223777r1050763_chk)

Review all Dataset and resource profiles in the RACF database. If any are not defined with UACC NONE, this is a finding. There is an exception when evaluating the UACC for DIGTCERT and NODES resource classes. The universal access (UACC) for DIGTCERT profiles: For profiles in classes other than DIGTCERT, the valid values are NONE, READ, EXECUTE, UPDATE, CONTROL, and ALTER. For DIGTCERT profiles, the valid values are TRUST, NOTRUST, and HIGHTRST. If DIGTCERT Profiles are defined with other than UACC NONE, this is not a finding. The universal access (UACC) for NODES: A UACC of NONE fails the inbound job. If NODES profiles are defined with other than UACC NONE, this is not a finding.

Fix Text (F-25438r1050762_fix)

Define each dataset and resource profile with UACC(NONE), excluding the exceptions of NODES and DIGTCERT profiles.
