CCI-004970

Employ automated mechanisms to integrate intrusion detection mechanisms into flow control mechanisms.

Implementation Guidance

Determine if: - automated tools and mechanisms are employed to integrate intrusion detection tools and mechanisms into access control mechanisms. - automated tools and mechanisms are employed to integrate intrusion detection tools and mechanisms into flow control mechanisms.

Validation Procedures

Examine: [SELECT FROM: System and information integrity policy; system and information integrity procedures; access control policy and procedures; procedures addressing system monitoring tools and techniques; 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 installing, configuring, and/or maintaining the system; organizational personnel responsible for monitoring the system; organizational personnel responsible for the intrusion detection system]. Test: [SELECT FROM: Organizational processes for intrusion detection and system monitoring; mechanisms supporting and/or implementing the intrusion detection and system monitoring capability; mechanisms and tools supporting and/or implementing the access and flow control capabilities; mechanisms and tools supporting and/or implementing the integration of intrusion detection tools into the access and flow control mechanisms].
