Description
Unrestricted traffic may contain malicious traffic which poses a threat to an enclave or to other connected networks. Additionally, unrestricted traffic may transit a network, which uses bandwidth and other resources. VPN traffic received from another enclave with different security policy or level of trust must not bypass be inspected by the firewall before being forwarded to the private network.

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.

From the BIG-IP GUI: 1. Network. 2. IPsec. 3. IPsec Policies. 4. Click on IPsec Policy for site to site IPsec. 5. Verify that "ESP" is selected in the IPsec Protocol section. If the BIG-IP is not configured to ensure inbound and outbound traffic is configured with a security policy in compliance with information flow control policies, this is a finding.
