Check: SRG-APP-000208-MAPP-NA
Mobile Application SRG:
SRG-APP-000208-MAPP-NA
(in version v1 r1)
Title
Applications utilizing mobile code must meet policy requirements regarding the acquisition, development, and/or use of mobile code. (Cat II impact)
Discussion
Decisions regarding the employment of mobile code within organizational information systems are based on the potential for the code to cause damage to the system if used maliciously. Mobile code technologies include Java, JavaScript, ActiveX, PDF, Postscript, Shockwave movies, Flash animations, and VBScript. Usage restrictions and implementation guidance apply to both the selection and use of mobile code installed on organizational servers, and mobile code downloaded and executed on individual workstations. DoDI 8552.01 policy pertains to the use of mobile code technologies within DoD information systems. Rationale for non-applicability: SRG-APP-000208 is redundant with SRG-APP-000074. All applicable mobile code requirements are associated with SRG-APP-000074 rather than repeated here.
