Assessment Objective

Determine if:

• SC-18(04)[01] the automatic execution of mobile code in [Assignment: software applications] is prevented;
• SC-18(04)[02] [Assignment: actions] are enforced prior to executing mobile code.

Assessment Methods

Examine

• System and communications protection policy
• procedures addressing mobile code
• mobile code usage restrictions
• mobile code implementation policy and procedures
• system design documentation
• system configuration settings and associated documentation
• list of software applications in which the automatic execution of mobile code must be prohibited
• list of actions required before execution of mobile code
• system security plan
• other relevant documents or records

Interview

• System/network administrators
• organizational personnel with information security responsibilities
• system developer
• organizational personnel with responsibilities for managing mobile code

Test

• Mechanisms preventing the automatic execution of unacceptable mobile code
• mechanisms enforcing actions to be taken prior to the execution of the mobile code
