The VMM must monitor remote access methods automatically.

Description
Remote access services, such as those providing remote access to network devices and VMMs, which lack automated capabilities, increase risk and make remote user access management difficult at best. Remote access is access to DoD VMMs by an authorized user (or another VMM) communicating through an external, non-organization-controlled network. Remote access methods include, for example, dial-up, broadband, and wireless. Automated monitoring of remote access sessions allows organizations to detect cyber attacks and also ensure ongoing compliance with remote access policies by auditing connection activities of remote access capabilities, such as Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), on a variety of VMM components.
