Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity
V-6759 KVM04.006.00 SV-6981r3_rule DCBP-1 Medium
Description
An A/B switch not found on the approved KVM and A/B switch lists has not been tested to verify that it does not leak data between systems. This can lead to the compromise of sensitive data or the compromise of the ISs attached to the A/B switch. The organization will ensure only approved A/B switches are used with ISs of differing classification levels.
