In the event of a system failure, the VMM must preserve any information necessary to determine cause of failure and any information necessary to return to operations with least disruption to mission processes.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion> Failure to a known state can address safety or security in accordance with the mission/business needs of the organization. Failure to a known secure state helps prevent a loss of confidentiality, integrity, or availability in the event of a failure of the VMM or a component of the system. Preserving VMM state information helps to facilitate VMM restart and return to the operational mode of the organization with less disruption of mission/business processes.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
