Assessment Objective

Determine if:

• SC-07a.
  • SC-07a.[01] communications at external managed interfaces to the system are monitored;
  • SC-07a.[02] communications at external managed interfaces to the system are controlled;
  • SC-07a.[03] communications at key internal managed interfaces within the system are monitored;
  • SC-07a.[04] communications at key internal managed interfaces within the system are controlled;
• SC-07b. subnetworks for publicly accessible system components are [Selection: physically; logically] separated from internal organizational networks;
• SC-07c. external networks or systems are only connected to through managed interfaces consisting of boundary protection devices arranged in accordance with an organizational security and privacy architecture.

Assessment Methods

Examine

• System and communications protection policy

• enterprise security architecture documentation
• system audit records
• system security plan
• other relevant documents or records

Interview

• System/network administrators
• organizational personnel with information security responsibilities
