Who does this work

12 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-233324r1113796_chk)

If DOD is not at C2C Step 1 or higher, this is not a finding. 1. Go to Tools >> Options >> Syslog. 2. Verify a syslog server's IP address is configured. Or 1. Go to Tools >> Options. 2. Navigate to the extended module (e.g., Splunk) that offloads log records to a separate device. 3. Verify the connection is successful. If each Forescout device does not offload log records to a separate device, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-36484r1113795_fix)

Configure Syslog server with TCP, as well as configure Syslog to alert if the communication between the Syslog server and the Forescout appliance loses connectivity. 1. Go to Tools >> Options >> Syslog. 2. Click "Add/Edit". 3. Configure the Syslog: - Navigate to Syslog Server IP address >> Server Port >> Server Protocol set to TCP. - Check the Use TLS setting. - Configure the Identity, Facility, and Severity. 4. Click "Ok". 5. Click "Apply". Or Configure external module (e.g., Splunk) per instructions to send appliance logs from each Forescout appliance to the separate destination.
