5.2.7: Network management

Oh no! No description found. But not to worry. Read from Tasks below how to advance this topic.

Objective: IT systems in a network are exposed to different risks or have different protection needs. In order to detect or prevent unintended data exchange or access between these IT systems, they are subdivided into suitable segments and access is controlled and monitored by means of security technologies.

Requirements (must): Requirements for the management and control of networks are determined and fulfilled.
Requirements regarding network segmentation are determined and fulfilled.

Requirements (should): Procedures for the management and control of networks are defined.
For a risk-based network segmentation, the following aspects are considered:
- Limitations for connecting IT systems to the network,
- Use of security technologies,
- Performance, trust, availability, security, and safety considerations
- Limitation of impact in case of compromised IT systems
- Detection of potential attacks and lateral movement of attackers
- Separation of networks with different operational purpose (e.g. test and development networks, office network, manufacturing networks)
- The increased risk due to network services accessible via the internet,
- Technology-specific separation options when using external IT services,
- Adequate separation between own networks and customer networks while considering customer requirements
- Detection and prevention of data loss/leakage

This requirement is part of the framework:

Detailed procedures for the management, control and segmentation of networks

This task helps you comply with the following requirements

The ISMS component hierachy

Framework

Sets the overall compliance standard or regulation your organization needs to follow.

Requirements

Break down the framework into specific obligations that must be met.

Tasks

Concrete actions and activities your team carries out to satisfy each requirement.

Policies

Documented rules and practices that are created and maintained as a result of completing tasks.

Never duplicate effort. Do it once - improve compliance across frameworks.

Reach multi-framework compliance in the simplest possible way
Security frameworks tend to share the same core requirements - like risk management, backup, malware, personnel awareness or access management.
Cyberday maps all frameworks’ requirements into shared tasks - one single plan that improves all frameworks’ compliance.
Do it once - we automatically apply it to all current and future frameworks.
