Vault/Secure Room Storage Standards - Masking of IDS Sensors Displayed at the Intrusion Detection System (IDS) Monitoring Station

An XCCDF Rule

Description

<VulnDiscussion>Failure to meet standards for the display of masked alarm sensors at the IDS monitoring station could result in the location with masked or inactive sensors not being properly supervised. This could result in an undetected breach of a secure room perimeter and the undetected loss or compromise of classified material.

Remediation - Manual Procedure

Shunting or masking of any secure room IDS internal zone or sensor must be appropriately logged or recorded in the system archive.
