Vulnerability discussion

A portion of the DoDI 8550.1 PPS policy requires registration of those PPS that cross any of the boundaries defined by the policy that are “visible to DoD-managed components”. The following PPS registration requirement applies to VTC traffic that crosses the IP based Enclave boundary to the DISN WAN or another enclave.

[IP]; Interview the IAO and validate compliance with the following requirement: Ensure all protocols and services that cross the enclave boundary and/or any of the defined DoD boundaries (along with their associated IP ports) used by VTC systems for which he/she is responsible are registered in the DoD Ports and Protocols Database in accordance with DoDI 8550.1. Review network diagrams, device documentation, to identify what VTC/VTU/MCU Ports/Protocols/Services are used by the VTC system. Once these Ports/Protocols/Services have been determined and confirmed for use, verify that these same Ports/Protocols/Services are registered and approved for use in the DoD Ports and Protocols Database in accordance with DoDI 8550.1. Note: Reference tables are provided in the STIG

Fix text

[IP]; Perform the following tasks: - Determine what Ports/Protocols/Services are used by the VTC system within the enclave and which cross the enclave boundary as well as what other boundaries they traverse. - Register all Ports/Protocols/Services are used by the VTC system in the PPS database.

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.
