Description
Information flow policies regarding dynamic information flow control include, for example, allowing or disallowing information flows based on changes to the PPSM CAL, vulnerability assessments, or mission conditions. Changing conditions include changes in the threat environment and detection of potentially harmful or adverse events. Changes to the ALG must take effect when made by an authorized administrator and the new configuration is put in place or committed, including upon restart of the application or reboot of the system. With some devices, the changes take effect as the configuration is changed, while with others, the new configuration must be submitted to the device. In any case, the behavior of the ALG must immediately be affected to reflect the configuration change.

Who does this work

18 NICE work roles and 10 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Confirm Kona Site Defender is configured to block traffic for organizationally defined geographic regions: 1. Log in to the Akamai Luna Portal (https://control.akamai.com). 2. Click the "Configure" tab. 3. Under the "Security" section, select "Security Configuration". 4. If prompted for which product to use, select "Site Defender" and then "Continue". 5. Under the "Security Configurations" section, click on the most recent version under the "Production" column for the security configuration being reviewed. 6. The detailed "Security Configuration" page will load listing the protected host names and applicable policies. 7. Select the policy being reviewed. 8. Verify the "Network Layer Controls" checkbox is enabled. 9. Within the "Network Layer Controls Configuration" section, verify the organizationally defined geographic regions appear in the "Blocked GEOs" list. If the Network Layer Controls are not enabled and the organizationally defined geographic regions do not appear in the list, this is a finding.
