-AWS Security Hub Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) provides security controls that support a subset of NIST SP 800-171 Revision 2 requirements. The controls perform automated security checks for certain AWS services and resources. To enable and manage these controls, you can enable the NIST SP 800-171 Revision 2 framework as a standard in Security Hub CSPM. Note that the controls don't support NIST SP 800-171 Revision 2 requirements that require manual checks.

-To optimize coverage and the accuracy of findings, it's important to enable and configure resource recording in AWS Config before you enable the NIST SP 800-171 Revision 2 standard in AWS Security Hub Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM). When you configure resource recording, also be sure to enable it for all the types of AWS resources that are checked by controls that apply to the standard. Otherwise, Security Hub CSPM might not be able to evaluate the appropriate resources, and generate accurate findings for controls that apply to the standard.
