Applications designed to enforce protocol formats must employ automated mechanisms to enforce strict adherence to protocol format.

Overview

Finding ID	Version	Rule ID	IA Controls	Severity
V-36348	SRG-APP-253-NA	SV-47752r1_rule		Medium

Description
Automated mechanisms used to enforce protocol formats include, deep packet inspection firewalls and XML gateways. These devices verify adherence to the protocol specification (e.g., IEEE) at the application layer and serve to identify significant vulnerabilities that cannot be detected by devices operating at the network or transport layer. It is impractical to expect protocol format inspection to be conducted manually. Rationale for non-applicability: The MDM server is not designed to enforce protocol formats.
