Description
Malicious code protection mechanisms include but are not limited to anti-virus and malware detection software. To minimize any potential negative impact to the organization caused by malicious code, malicious code must be identified and eradicated. Malicious code includes viruses, worms, trojan horses, and spyware.

Who does this work

8 NICE work roles and 7 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.

Check Text (C-91131r1_chk)

Confirm Kona Site Defender is configured to use the latest rule set to block traffic for organizationally defined HTTP protocol violations, HTTP policy violations, SQL injection, remote file inclusion, cross-site scripting, command injection attacks, and any applicable custom rules: 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. For the applicable security configuration, click on the tuning status details link under the "Tuning Status" column. If the tuning status does not state "You are using the latest Kona Rule Set version and your security configuration is optimal", this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-83113r1_fix)
