 +
 +===== Discussion =====
 +
 +Baseline Approval is an authorization decision that designates an identified [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:b:baseline|Baseline]] Revision as an approved reference for a defined purpose and scope.
 +
 +Baseline Approval may identify:
 +
 +  * The approved Baseline
 +  * The approved Baseline Revision
 +  * The approving authority
 +  * The approval decision
 +  * The approval date
 +  * The applicable purpose
 +  * The applicable scope
 +  * The effective period
 +  * Applicable conditions
 +  * Superseded Baseline Revisions
 +
 +Baseline Approval differs from Baseline creation:
 +
 +  * Baseline creation produces or records a candidate Baseline
 +  * Baseline Approval authorizes an identified Baseline Revision for a defined use
 +
 +Baseline Approval also differs from [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:b:baseline_selection|Baseline Selection]]:
 +
 +  * Baseline Approval establishes that a Baseline Revision may serve as an approved reference
 +  * Baseline Selection chooses an applicable Baseline Revision for a particular subject, activity, or context

 +
 +===== Note =====
 +
 +Baseline Approval does not establish that every subject evaluated against the Baseline conforms to it.
 +
 +Approval may apply to:
 +
 +  * A single use
 +  * A defined class of subjects
 +  * A specified environment
 +  * A delivery phase
 +  * An operational period
 +  * An organization or administrative domain
 +
 +A change to approved Baseline content should produce a new Revision subject to the applicable approval process.
 +
 +===== Example =====
 +
 +An authorized governance body approves Revision 4 of a Security Baseline for use when building production Machine Images during a defined release period.
