Vendor supported, DOD approved, anti-virus software is not installed and configured on all SAN servers in accordance with the applicable operating system STIG on SAN servers and management devices and kept up-to-date with the most recent virus definition tables.
High Severity
<VulnDiscussion>The SAN servers and other hosts are subject to virus and worm attacks as are any systems running an OS. If the anti-virus software is not installed or the virus definitions are not maintained on these systems, this could expose the entire enclave network to exploits of known vulnerabilities. The IAO/NSO will ensure that vendor supported, DOD approved, anti-virus software is installed and configured on all SAN servers in accordance with the applicable operating system STIG on SAN servers and management devices and kept up-to-date with the most recent virus definition tables.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility>Information Assurance Officer</Responsibility><Responsibility>Network Security Officer</Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
