SR-11 Component Authenticity
a. Develop and implement anti-counterfeit policy and procedures that include the means to detect and prevent counterfeit components from entering the system; and b. Report counterfeit system components to Selection (one or more): source of counterfeit component; [organization-defined external reporting organizations; organization-defined personnel or roles].
Source: NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5, SR-11. The statement above is our statement of the clause, read from the published text and cited so you can check it against the official text, not the instrument verbatim. Open NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 in the compliance library.
Base controls and their enhancements. Which apply follows the baseline you are assessed against (for example FedRAMP Moderate or High, or the low, moderate and high baselines of SP 800-53B). Text in square brackets is a parameter your organisation sets.
These are the artefacts auditors commonly ask for on this requirement, our guidance rather than text from the standard. Your assessor decides what is sufficient in your context, and asks for samples across the period when a report covers one.

- No anti-counterfeit policy or procedures exist to keep counterfeit components from entering the system
- Suspected counterfeit components are discarded without reporting to the source or the defined external organizations
