The Cisco perimeter router must be configured to protect an enclave connected to an approved gateway by using an inbound filter that only permits packets with destination addresses within the sites address space.

Description
Enclaves with approved gateway connections must take additional steps to ensure there is no compromise on the enclave network or NIPRNet. Without verifying the destination address of traffic coming from the site's approved gateway, the perimeter router could be routing transit data from the internet into the NIPRNet. This could also make the perimeter router vulnerable to a denial-of-service (DoS) attack and provide a back door into the NIPRNet. The DOD enclave must ensure the ingress filter applied to external interfaces on a perimeter router connecting to an approved gateway is secure through filters permitting packets with a destination address belonging to the DOD enclave's address block.

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.

This requirement is not applicable for the DODIN backbone. Step 1: Verify the interface connecting to ISP has an inbound ACL as shown in the example below. interface GigabitEthernet0/2 description Link to ISP ip address x.22.1.15 255.255.255.240 ip access-group FILTER_ISP in Step 2: Verify that the ACL only allows traffic to specific destination addresses (i.e., enclave’s NIPRNet address space) as shown in the example below. ip access-list extended FILTER_ISP permit tcp any any established permit icmp host x.12.1.16 host x.12.1.17 echo permit icmp host x.12.1.16 host x.12.1.17 echo-reply permit tcp any host x.12.1.22 eq www permit tcp any host x.12.1.23 eq www permit 50 any host x.12.1.24 permit 51 any host x.12.1.24 deny ip any any log-input Note: An approved gateway is any external connection from a DOD NIPRNet enclave to an internet service provider, network owned by a contractor, or non-DOD federal agency that has been approved by either the DOD CIO or the DOD Component CIO. This approved gateway requirement does not apply to commercial cloud connections when the cloud service provider (CSP) network is connected via the NIPRNet Boundary Cloud Access Point (BCAP). If the ingress ACL bound to the interface connecting to an approved gateway permits packets with addresses other than those specified, such as destination addresses of the site's NIPRNet address space or a destination address belonging to the address block assigned by the approved gateway network service provider, this is a finding.

This requirement is not applicable for the DODIN backbone. Configure the ingress ACL of the perimeter router connected to an approved gateway to only permit packets with destination addresses of the site's NIPRNet address space or a destination address belonging to the address block assigned by the approved gateway network service provider as shown in the example below.
