  • The Juniper SRX Services Gateway Firewall must generate an alert that can be forwarded to, at a minimum, the ISSO and ISSM when threats identified by authoritative sources are detected.

    Without an alert, security personnel may be unaware of major detection incidents that require immediate action and this delay may result in the loss or compromise of information. The ALG generates...

    Rule Medium Severity
  • The Juniper SRX Services Gateway Firewall must disable or remove unnecessary network services and functions that are not used as part of its role in the architecture.

    Network devices are capable of providing a wide variety of functions (capabilities or processes) and services. Some of these functions and services are installed and enabled by default. The organiz...

  • The Juniper SRX Services Gateway Firewall must not be configured as an NTP server since providing this network service is unrelated to the role as a firewall.

    Information systems are capable of providing a wide variety of functions (capabilities or processes) and services. Some of these functions and services are installed and enabled by default. The org...
