Description
If a network attached KVM switch is attached to a network of a different classification level than the ISs attached to the KVM switch, this will lead to a compromise of sensitive data either on the network or on the ISs. The IAO will ensure that network attached KVM switches are only connected to a network that is at the same classification level as the ISs attached

Remove the KVM switch from the network when the KVM IS attached to the KVM switch are at a different classification level then the network. Attach the KVM switch to a network of the appropriate classification level.
