Implementation Guidance

Determine if [SC-05(03)_ODP[02]; system resources to be monitored to determine if sufficient resources exist to prevent effective denial-of-service attacks are defined] are monitored to determine if sufficient resources exist to prevent effective denial-of-service attacks.

Validation Procedures

Examine: [SELECT FROM: System and communications protection policy; procedures addressing denial-of-service protection; system design documentation; system monitoring tools and techniques documentation; system configuration settings and associated documentation; system audit records; system security plan; other relevant documents or records]. Interview: [SELECT FROM: System/network administrators; organizational personnel with information security responsibilities; organizational personnel with detection and monitoring responsibilities]. Test: [SELECT FROM: Mechanisms/tools implementing system monitoring for denial-of-service attacks].
