Description
Wireless client, networks, and data could be compromised if unapproved wireless remote access is used. In most cases, unapproved devices are not managed and configured as required by the appropriate STIG and the site’s overall network security controls are not configured to provide adequate security for unapproved devices. When listed in the SSP, the site has shown that security controls have been designed to account for the wireless devices.
