SACS-210 Technical Implementation Checklist
Download a practical 7-page checklist covering 24 technical and IT-operational General Requirements from TPC1.8 to TPC1.31 for implementation and evidence verification.
A Focused Checklist for Technical Implementation
The checklist helps an IT department or managed service provider review the technical and IT-operational part of the SACS-210 General Requirements. It is deliberately narrower than a complete CCC readiness assessment.
- Direct control mapping: 24 selected General Requirements from TPC1.8 through TPC1.31.
- Implementation checks: Practical items for reviewing technical settings and confirming implementation.
- Evidence focus: Prompts teams to retain configuration exports, screenshots, reports or approved records.
- Appendix C coverage: Includes 8 minimum event types and 10 required event attributes for logging.
SACS-210 Technical Checklist
A practical implementation aid for the technical portion of the General Requirements.
Five Technical Implementation Sections
The PDF organizes the selected controls by implementation responsibility, without claiming coverage of every SACS-210 requirement.
Asset Management, Identity & Access
TPC1.8-TPC1.15Asset inventory, centralized identity and access management, unique credentials, password rules, MFA, SSO, access reviews and secure authentication.
Data Lifecycle, Cryptography & External Media
TPC1.16-TPC1.19Data return and deletion, secure asset disposal, encryption at rest and in transit, and centrally controlled external storage media.
Email Security, Time & Log Protection
TPC1.20-TPC1.26SPF, DKIM and DMARC, anti-spam and attachment inspection, a private email domain, macro blocking, time synchronization and protected event logs.
Platform Security & Patching
TPC1.27-TPC1.30Endpoint firewalls, web application firewalls, up-to-date signature-based malware protection, and patch testing or recovery measures.
Logging & Detection
TPC1.31 and Appendix CAudit and cybersecurity event logging, including the minimum event types and event attributes that must be captured under Appendix C.
Scope boundary: TPC1.1-TPC1.7 and TPC1.32-TPC1.33 remain mandatory General Requirements but are intentionally excluded from this technical checklist. Category-dependent Specific Requirements under TPC-2.* are also outside its scope.
