Information

MailDrop allows users to send large attachments up to 5 GB in size via iCloud. Storing data with a non-DoD cloud provider may leave the data vulnerable to breach. Disabling non-DoD cloud services mitigates this risk.

SFR ID: FMT_SMF_EXT.1.1 #47

NOTE: Nessus has not performed this check. Please review the benchmark to ensure target compliance.
