Each line is a clause, the NIST SP 800-53 controls OSA maps to it, and OSA's estimate of how far those controls cover it.
Clause titles and coverage figures are OSA's own summaries and estimates. No line-by-line check against the source text is recorded for this framework, so quote the source, not this card.
