What activities are in Step 6 of the Risk Management Framework that continuous monitoring supports?

Step 6 of the Risk Management Framework (RMF) focuses on continuous monitoring of security controls. Activities in this step include the ongoing assessment of security controls to ensure they remain effective over time, the collection and analysis of security-related information, and the reporting of security status to stakeholders. Continuous monitoring also involves the identification of changes in the system environment that may impact risk and the implementation of necessary adjustments to maintain an acceptable risk posture. Additionally, it supports the integration of lessons learned from incidents to improve future security measures.
