Description
Changes to any software components of the firewall can have significant effects on the overall security of the network. Therefore, only qualified and authorized individuals should be allowed administrative access to the firewall for implementing any changes or upgrades to system components. Enforcing a two-person rule will ensure the changes have been approved.
