Title

The macOS system must uniquely identify peripherals before establishing a connection.

Control

The technology supports this requirement and cannot be configured to be out of compliance. The technology inherently meets this requirement.

Discussion

Without identifying devices, unidentified or unknown devices may be introduced, thereby facilitating malicious activity.

Peripherals include, but are not limited to, such devices as flash drives, external storage, and printers.

Fix

The technology inherently meets this requirement. No fix is required.
