# Roles, Responsibilities, and Authorities (GV.RR) Roles, Responsibilities, and Authorities

## High-Level Description

**Function:** GOVERN (GV)
**Framework:** NIST Cybersecurity Framework v2.0

Cybersecurity roles, responsibilities, and authorities to foster accountability, performance assessment, and continuous improvement are established and communicated

## What to Check

- [ ] Verify Roles, Responsibilities, and Authorities (GV.RR) Roles, Responsibilities, and Authorities outcome is achieved
- [ ] Review documentation and evidence for Roles, Responsibilities, and Authorities (GV.RR)
- [ ] Assess organizational maturity for GOVERN function

## How to Test

### Step 1: Identify Current Profile

Determine the organization's current and target CSF profile tier for Roles, Responsibilities, and Authorities (GV.RR).

### Step 2: Assess Outcome Achievement

```
# Review organizational policies and procedures
# Check for evidence that Roles, Responsibilities, and Authorities (GV.RR) outcome is met
# Interview stakeholders responsible for GOVERN
```

### Step 3: Map to Technical Controls

Identify which SP 800-53 controls implement this CSF outcome and verify their operating effectiveness.
