  For a real engagement, select the Program and its bounded Systems, a framework containing the complete CC1.1 through CC9.2 Security Common Criteria set, all nine SOC 2 Description Criteria, any optional Trust Services Categories in scope, and Controls that cover every applicable selected Trust Services criterion. Treat every Security Common Criterion as applicable. For an included optional category, keep a criterion in the framework when management judges it not relevant and record the limited circumstances in the System Description's DC8 disclosure. Do not omit any of the nine Description Criteria. Use `coverage.kind: "as-of"` with `on` for Type 1 or `coverage.kind: "range"` with `startsOn` and `endsOn` for Type 2. Record the Git commit for management's complete scope review in `scopeRevision`. Record `subserviceConclusion` and its rationale. When subservice organizations are identified, each `subserviceTreatments` item must connect one Vendor to its supplied Components within a selected System and choose the carve-out or inclusive method. Inclusive treatments also need the selected Controls that operate on those Components.
