Kona Site Defender providing content filtering must send an immediate (within seconds) alert to the system administrator, at a minimum, in response to malicious code detection.

Description
Without an alert, security personnel may be unaware of an impending failure of the audit capability. This will impede the ability to perform forensic analysis and detect rate-based and other anomalies. The ALG generates an immediate (within seconds) alert that notifies designated personnel of the incident. Sending a message to an unattended log or console does not meet this requirement since that will not be seen immediately. These messages should include a severity level indicator or code as an indicator of the criticality of the incident.

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.

Confirm Kona Site Defender is configured to alert the ISSO, ISSM, and SA when detection events occur: 1. Log in to the Akamai Luna Portal (Caution-https://control.akamai.com). 2. Click the "Monitor" tab. 3. Under the "Security" section select "Security Monitor". 4. Click the "Notification" button (an icon shaped like a triangle with an exclamation point on the inside) 5. Click the "Configure Notification" button shaped like a plus sign. 6. Confirm that notifications are being sent when "Mitigated" is greater than (>) "1". If the alerts are not being sent, this is a finding.
