Assessment Title
Rule Text
The Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)/Platform as a Service (PaaS)/Software as a Service (SaaS) must register the service/application with the DOD DMZ/IAP allowlist for internet-facing inbound and outbound traffic.
Description
Discussion Text
Register the service/application with the DOD DMZ/IAP allowlist for both inbound and outbound traffic if traffic will cross the internet access points (IAPs).
Using an allowlist provides a configuration management method for allowing the execution of only authorized software, ports, protocols, and guest virtual machines (VMs). Using only authorized software decreases risk by limiting the number of potential vulnerabilities and preventing the execution of malware. Cloud approval documentation should include allowed approved ports and protocols communications, including allowlisted mission application traffic and services access from the internet via the Defense Information Systems Network (DISN) IAP.
If all or a portion of the mission owners cloud-based Level 4/5 systems/applications connected through the BCAP are to be internet accessible, traffic is required to traverse the DISN IAPs. The system's/application's URLs/IP addresses must be registered with the DOD DMZ allowlist. Traffic that will typically traverse the IAP is management traffic for Level 2 off-premises systems/applications and for user plane traffic to/from Level 4/5 systems/applications that are internet-facing. Such traffic and IP addresses may be blocked if not registered in the allowlist.
