    I know one of the people who is an author of 800-53.

    It was funny since an auditor was arguing with her. The auditor said I know this better than you do.

    She replied back, I wrote it then showed her named in the credits.

      That’s pretty great. I had to go full Karen on our auditors to speak to their supervisors because apparently the NIST definition of a term doesn’t matter if the auditor feels differently. And it was actually an unambiguous definition.

        The worst part is the auditor still claimed they knew it better than the person who wrote it.

        We got them removed as that’s a level of arrogance that can’t be tolerated.
