ac-18.1 - [catalog] Authentication and Encryption

Control Statement

Protect wireless access to the system using authentication of No value found and encryption.

Control guidance

Wireless networking capabilities represent a significant potential vulnerability that can be exploited by adversaries. To protect systems with wireless access points, strong authentication of users and devices along with strong encryption can reduce susceptibility to threats by adversaries involving wireless technologies.

Control assessment-objective

wireless access to the system is protected using authentication of No value found; wireless access to the system is protected using encryption.


What is the solution and how is it implemented?

Since cloud.gov is completely virtualized within AWS, there are no wireless capabilities possible.
