MP.L2-3.8.2 — Limit CUI media access to authorized users
Limit access to CUI on system media to authorized users.
Verbatim NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2 requirement text (3.8.2).
How it's scored
3 points deducted from your SPRS score if unmet.
An open gap here is not POA&M-eligible (only 1-point requirements qualify under 32 CFR 170.21, with one narrow exception at SC.L2-3.13.11): it must be fully implemented before a Level 2 assessment can certify.
What an assessor checks: the 1 assessment objective
NIST SP 800-171A determination statements, verbatim. A CMMC Level 2 assessor marks MP.L2-3.8.2 MET only when every applicable objective is satisfied — and examines evidence, not assertions.
| Objective | Determination statement |
|---|---|
| 3.8.2 | access to CUI on system media is limited to authorized users. |
