Assessment Title
Rule Text
Deficient SOP or enforcement regarding the approval and deployment of VTC capabilities.
Description
Discussion Text
Due to the various IA issues surrounding VTC endpoint operation, they should only be installed or deployed where there is a validated requirement for their use. Conference room systems are easily justified and beneficial to an organization. General deployment to every desk in an organization is more difficult to justify. Deployments of office-based VTUs, desktop VTUs, and PC software based VTC applications must be considered on the basis of a validated need for the user to have this capability. Such needs should be revalidated annually
In general, when VTC systems are implemented, consideration must be given to mission benefit weighed against the operational risks and the possibility of improper disclosure of information as discussed throughout this document. While this is important for ISDN only connected VTUs, this is most important for IP connected VTUs.
The site must develop policies and enforce them regarding the deployment of VTC endpoints in support of IA control DCSD-1, which requires IA documentation be maintained, and IA control DCPR-1 which requires a change management process be instituted.
