Forescout must be configured so that all client machines are assessed by Forescout with exceptions that are allowed to bypass Forescout based on account or account type, as approved by the information system security manager (ISSM) and documented in the System Security Plan (SSP). This is required for compliance with C2C Step 1.

<VulnDiscussion>The NAC gateway provides the policy enforcement allowing or denying the endpoint to the network. Unauthorized endpoints that bypass this control present a risk to the organization's data and network. The focus of this requirement is on identification, documentation, and approval of devices that will bypass the NAC. This is not a requirement that all traffic flow through the NAC.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
