Title

New IP addresses, data services, and associated ports used by the application must be submitted to the appropriate approving authority for the organization, which in turn will be submitted through the DoW Ports, Protocols, and Services Management (DoW PPSM)

Control

All application ports, protocols, and services needed for application operation need to be in compliance with the DoW Ports and Protocols guidance. Check: http://iase.disa.mil/ppsm/Pages/index.aspx to verify the ports, protocols, and services are in compliance with the PPS CAL. Check all necessary ports and protocols needed for application operation (only those accessed from outside the local enclave) are checked against the DoW Ports and Protocols guidance to ensure compliance. Identify the ports needed for the application: - Look at System Security Plan/Accreditation documentation - Ask System Administrator - Go to Network Administrator - Go to Network Reviewer - If a network scan is available, use it - Use netstat/task manager - Check /etc./services If the application is not in compliance with DoW Ports and Protocols guidance, this is a finding.

Discussion

Failure to comply with DoW Ports, Protocols, and Services (PPS) Vulnerability Analysis and associated PPS mitigations may result in compromise of enclave boundary protections and/or functionality of the application.
