Title

Filter Mechanisms Using Multiple Processes

Control

When transferring information between different security domains, implement content filtering mechanisms using multiple processes.

Discussion

The use of multiple processes to implement content filtering mechanisms reduces the likelihood of a single point of failure.

Assessment objective

AC-04(30) when transferring information between security domains, content-filtering mechanisms using multiple processes are implemented.
