SC-49: Hardware-enforced Separation and Policy Enforcement

Control Text:

Implement hardware-enforced separation and policy enforcement mechanisms between [Assignment: organization-defined security domains].

System owners may require additional strength of mechanism and robustness to ensure domain separation and policy enforcement for specific types of threats and environments of operation. Hardware-enforced separation and policy enforcement provide greater strength of mechanism than software-enforced separation and policy enforcement.
