Use of nonsecure network functions, ports, protocols, and services exposes the system to avoidable threats.

Check content

Review the network functions, ports, protocols, and services supported by the DBMS. If any protocol is prohibited by the PPSM guidance and is enabled, this is a finding.

Fix text

Deploy a DBMS capable of disabling a network function, port, protocol, or service prohibited by the PPSM guidance. Disable each prohibited network function, port, protocol, or service.

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.
