Description
This control ensures transmitted information includes security attributes. The firewall implementation must include content inspection and filtering of both the data payload and the metadata (security attributes) associated with the data. This inspection is often performed first by a packet level firewall and then by a separate application firewall (also called a proxy or gateway). Association of security attributes with information is not a function of the firewall.
