Description
ESP provides confidentiality, data origin authentication, integrity, and anti-replay services within the IPsec suite of protocols. ESP in tunnel mode ensures a secure path for communications for site-to-site VPNs and gateway to endpoints, including header information. ESP can be deployed in either transport or tunnel mode. Transport mode is used to create a secured session between two hosts. It can also be used when two hosts simply want to authenticate each IP packet with IPsec authentication header (AH). With ESP transport mode, only the payload (transport layer) is encrypted, whereas with tunnel mode, the entire IP packet is encrypted and encapsulated with a new IP header. Tunnel mode is used to encrypt traffic between secure IPsec gateways or between an IPsec gateway and an end-station running IPsec software. Hence, it is the only method to provide a secured path to transport traffic between remote sites or end-stations and the central site.

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-214681r385561_chk)

Review all IPsec profiles and zones to verify ESP tunnel mode has been specified. [edit] show security ipsec proposal show security zones security-zone untrust If all IPsec proposals are not configured for the ESP protocol, this is a finding. If an Internet Key Exchange (IKE) is not bound to an external host-inbound service to direct all inbound VPN traffic to the VPN interface configured for IKE, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-15880r297631_fix)

Configure Phase 2 for ESP and allow IKE as a host-inbound service within the security zone associated with the IKE gateway’s external interface configuration. Any traffic that you wish to encrypt is routed to this tunnel interface. Example: [edit set security ipsec proposal IPSEC-PROPOSAL protocol esp Assumes the external interface is associated with the “untrust” zone. [edit] set security ike gateway <IKE-PEER> external-interface <EXTERNAL-INTERFACE-NAME> set security zones security-zone untrust host-inbound-traffic system-services ike
