Associated with IA controls: ECSC-1

SV-51297r1_rule Development systems must have a firewall installed, configured, and enabled.

Vulnerability discussion

A firewall provides a line of defense against malicious attacks. To be effective, it must be enabled and properly configured.

Check content

Review the development images to determine whether the OS or a third party firewall has been installed, configured, and enabled. If a firewall is not installed, configured, and enabled, this is a finding. If there isn't any application development occurring in the zone environment, this requirement is not applicable.

Fix text

Install, configure, and enable either the OS or a third party firewall on the development system.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
