Description
There are security-related issues arising from software brought into the information system specifically for diagnostic and repair actions. (e.g., a software packet sniffer installed on a system in order to troubleshoot system traffic, or a vendor installing or running a diagnostic application in order to troubleshoot an issue with a vendor supported system). This requirement ensures the media containing the application is scanned for malicious code prior to use. Rationale for non-applicability: Malicious code protections are within the scope of the MDM SRG.
