Description
Remote access is any access to an organizational operating system by a user (or an information system) communicating through an external, non-organization-controlled network. Remote access to security functions (e.g., user management, audit log management, etc.) and security relevant information requires the activity be audited by the organization. Any operating system providing remote access must support organizational requirements to audit access or organization-defined security functions and security-relevant information.
