General things to consider when screening:
Analyze the security impact of application, configuration, and infrastructure changes to ensure compliance with the security standard as part of the change management lifecycle.
·Assess the configurations of applications, servers, and network devices for compliance with the security standard.
·Analyze and document how the implementation of new system or new interfaces between systems impacts the security posture of the current environment.
·Assess and document the security impact and risks of newly discovered vulnerabilities in the environment.
·Coordinate resolution of application and infrastructure security vulnerabilities with System Owners, IT, and vendors. Track resolution of vulnerabilities and provide regular updates to management.
·Coordinate resolution of endpoint security vulnerabilities with users and provide regular updates to management.
·Determine the protection needs (i.e., security controls) for the information system(s) and network(s) and document appropriately.
