Information

The IAO/NSO will ensure if 802.1x Port Authentication is implemented, re-authentication must occur every 60 minutes.

Eliminating unauthorized access to the network from inside the enclave is vital to keeping a network secure. Internal access to the private network is enabled by simply connecting a workstation or laptop to a wall plate or access point located in the work area.

NOTE: This check is derived from the L3 switch guidance, if the scan target is a router the check can be ignored.

Solution

Ensure 802.1x reauthentication occurs every 60 minutes.
