Description |
---|
Unauthorized or unapproved network services lack organizational verification or validation and therefore may be unreliable or serve as malicious rogues for valid services. Examples of network services include service-oriented architectures (SOAs), cloud-based services (e.g., infrastructure as a service, platform as a service, or software as a service), cross-domain, Voice over Internet Protocol, Instant Messaging, auto-execute, and file sharing. |
ℹ️ Check |

Verify that the ProxySG is configured to log access attempts to unauthorized websites and/or services. 1. Log on to the Web Management Console. 2. Browse to "Configuration" and click "Access Logging". Verify that "Enable Access Logging" is checked. 3. Click Policy >> Visual Policy Manager >> Launch. 4. For each Web Access Layer, verify that each rule has a value other than "none" in the "Track" column. If Symantec ProxySG providing content filtering does not generate a log record when access attempts to unauthorized websites and/or services are detected, this is a finding. |
