The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) Special Publication 800-53 provides a catalog of security and privacy controls for federal information systems and organizations. The controls are organized into families based on their related objectives. The SI control family within NIST 800-53 stands for "System and Information Integrity." It focuses on controls that are designed to protect the integrity of the information system and the information processed, stored, and transmitted by the system.
Such controls provide a framework for organizations to establish and maintain system and information integrity by implementing appropriate security measures. It is important to note that the specific controls implemented may vary depending on the context, risk assessment, and requirements of the organization or system being protected
