Description
IP tunneling mechanisms can be used to bypass network filtering. If tunneling is required, it must be documented with the information system security officer (ISSO).

Who does this work

10 NICE work roles and 9 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-269250r1050132_chk)

Verify that AlmaLinux OS 9 does not have unauthorized IP tunnels configured. Determine if the "IPsec" service is active with the following command: $ systemctl status ipsec ipsec.service - Internet Key Exchange (IKE) Protocol Daemon for IPsec Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/ipsec.service; disabled; preset: disabled) Active: inactive (dead) If the "IPsec" service is active, check for configured IPsec connections ("conn"), with the following command: $ grep -ri conn /etc/ipsec.conf /etc/ipsec.d/ | grep -v '#' Verify any returned results are documented with the ISSO. If the IPsec tunnels are active and not approved, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-73182r1048127_fix)

Remove all unapproved tunnels from the system, or document them with the ISSO.
