Least Functionality

Shared

a. Configure the system to provide only [Assignment: organization-defined mission essential capabilities]; and b. Prohibit or restrict the use of the following functions, ports, protocols, software, and/or services: [Assignment: organization-defined prohibited or restricted functions, system ports, protocols, software, and/or services].

Systems provide a wide variety of functions and services. Some of the functions and services routinely provided by default may not be necessary to support essential organizational missions, functions, or operations. Additionally, it is sometimes convenient to provide multiple services from a single system component, but doing so increases risk over limiting the services provided by that single component. Where feasible, organizations limit component functionality to a single function per component. Organizations consider removing unused or unnecessary software and disabling unused or unnecessary physical and logical ports and protocols to prevent unauthorized connection of components, transfer of information, and tunneling. Organizations employ network scanning tools, intrusion detection and prevention systems, and end-point protection technologies, such as firewalls and host-based intrusion detection systems, to identify and prevent the use of prohibited functions, protocols, ports, and services. Least functionality can also be achieved as part of the fundamental design and development of the system (see SA-8, SC-2, and SC-3).

Restricting or prohibiting interfaces within organizational systems includes restricting external web traffic to designated web servers within managed interfaces, prohibiting external traffic that appears to be spoofing internal addresses, and prohibiting internal traffic that appears to be spoofing external addresses. Commercial telecommunications services are provided by network components and consolidated management systems shared by customers. These services may also include third party-provided access lines and other service elements. Such services may represent sources of increased risk despite contract security provisions. Boundary protection may be implemented as a common control for all or part of an organizational network such that the boundary to be protected is greater than a system-specific boundary (i.e., an authorization boundary).

When agencies have cascaded connections between networks involving multiple gateways they MUST ensure that the assurance levels specified for network devices between the overall lowest and highest networks are met by the gateway between the highest network and the next highest network within the cascaded connection.

Agencies MUST ensure that: 1. all agency networks are protected from networks in other security domains by one or more gateways; 2. all gateways contain mechanisms to filter or limit data flow at the network and content level to only the information necessary for business purposes; and 3. all gateway components, discrete and virtual, are physically located within an appropriately secured server room.

Shared

n/a

Agencies MUST ensure that gateways: 1. are the only communications paths into and out of internal networks; 2. by default, deny all connections into and out of the network; 3. allow only explicitly authorised connections; 4. are managed via a secure path isolated from all connected networks (i.e. physically at the gateway or on a dedicated administration network); 5. provide sufficient logging and audit capabilities to detect information security incidents, attempted intrusions or anomalous usage patterns; and 6. provide real-time alerts.
