-AWS Security Hub Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) provides security controls that support a subset of NIST SP 800-53 Revision 5 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 800-53 Revision 5 framework as a standard in Security Hub CSPM. Note that the controls don't support NIST SP 800-53 Revision 5 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 800-53 Revision 5 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. This is primarily for controls that have a _change triggered_ schedule type. However, some controls with a _periodic_ schedule type also require resource recording. If resource recording isn't enabled or configured correctly, Security Hub CSPM might not be able to evaluate the appropriate resources, and generate accurate findings for controls that apply to the standard.
