Description
Changes to the hardware or software components of the network device can have significant effects on the overall security of the network. Therefore, only qualified and authorized individuals should be allowed administrative access to the network device for implementing any changes or upgrades. This requirement applies to updates of the application files, configuration, ACLs, and policy filters.

Who does this work

5 NICE work roles and 5 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-202131r961863_chk)

Check the network device to determine if only authorized administrators have permissions for changes, deletions and updates on the network device. Inspect the maintenance log to verify changes are being made only by the system administrators. If unauthorized users are allowed to change the hardware or software, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-2258r382068_fix)

Configure the network device to enforce access restrictions associated with changes to the system components.
