Adherence to Documented IT Security Policies, Standards, Procedures, and Guidelines

Compliance in the LAN-to-WAN Domain depends on implementing the best controls. As with other domains, explore alternative controls for each security goal. Many of the LAN-to-WAN security controls affect performance and the ability of your users to access your organization’s resources. You must ensure the correct controls are in place to balance all three security properties.

As you analyze controls in the LAN-to-WAN Domain to meet compliance requirements, ensure each control satisfies your security policy. If a control does not support any part of your security policy, you should question its value to your organization.

Implementing multiple types of controls decreases the likelihood an attack will be successful and makes your LAN-to-WAN Domain more secure.
