The CA API Gateway must employ automated mechanisms to detect the addition of unauthorized components or devices.


Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity
V-71575 CAGW-DM-000370 SV-86199r1_rule Medium
Description
This requirement addresses configuration management of the network device. The network device must automatically detect the installation of unauthorized software or hardware onto the device itself. Monitoring may be accomplished on an ongoing basis or by periodic monitoring. Automated mechanisms can be implemented within the network device and/or in another separate information system or device. If the addition of unauthorized components or devices is not automatically detected, then such components or devices could be used for malicious purposes, such as transferring sensitive data to removable media for compromise.
