The Juniper SRX Services Gateway Firewall must be configured to prohibit or restrict the use of unauthorized functions, ports, protocols, and/or services, as defined in the PPSM CAL, vulnerability assessments.
The Juniper SRX Services Gateway Firewall must be configured to prohibit or restrict the use of unauthorized functions, ports, protocols, and/or services, as defined in the PPSM CAL, vulnerability assessments. An XCCDF Rule
The Juniper SRX Services Gateway Firewall must be configured to prohibit or restrict the use of unauthorized functions, ports, protocols, and/or services, as defined in the PPSM CAL, vulnerability assessments.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>In order to prevent unauthorized connection of devices, unauthorized transfer of information, or unauthorized tunneling (i.e., embedding of data types within data types); organizations must disable or restrict unused or unnecessary physical and logical ports/protocols on information systems.
DoD continually assesses the ports, protocols, and services that can be used for network communications. Some ports, protocols or services have known exploits or security weaknesses. Network traffic using these ports, protocols, and services must be prohibited or restricted in accordance with DoD policy. The PPSM CAL and vulnerability assessments provide an authoritative source for ports, protocols, and services that are unauthorized or restricted across boundaries on DoD networks.
The Juniper SRX must be configured to prevent or restrict the use of prohibited ports, protocols, and services throughout the network by filtering the network traffic and disallowing or redirecting traffic as necessary. Default and updated policy filters from the vendors will disallow older version of protocols and applications and will address most known non-secure ports, protocols, and/or services.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
