15.9: Disable Wireless Peripheral Access to Devices ========================================================= Disable wireless peripheral access of devices [such as Bluetooth and Near Field Communication (NFC)], unless such access is required for a business purpose. .. list-table:: :header-rows: 1 * - Asset Type - Security Function - Implementation Groups * - Devices - Protect - 2, 3 Dependencies ------------ * Sub-control 1.4: Maintain Detailed Asset Inventory * Sub-control 1.5: Maintain Asset Inventory Information Inputs ----------- #. The list of devices capable of wireless peripheral access including Bluetooth and NFC (subset of hardware inventory) #. Approved configuration(s) to disable wireless peripheral access #. The list of devices with an approved business purpose to have wireless peripheral access enabled, along with which form(s) of wireless peripheral access are approved (Bluetooth, NFC, etc.) Operations ---------- #. For each device in Input 1, check to see if that device adheres to the appropriate configuration(s) from Input 2 to disable wireless peripheral access, excluding any form(s) of wireless peripheral access that the device is approved to have enabled according to Input 3. #. Create a list of devices that are properly configured (M1) #. Create a list of devices that are not properly configured (M2) noting the deviations from approved configuration. Measures -------- * M1 = List of devices that are properly configured to disable wireless peripheral access (compliant list) * M2 = List of devices that are not properly configured to disable wireless peripheral access (non-compliant list) * M3 = Count of devices that are properly configured to disable wireless peripheral access (count of M1) * M4 = Total count of devices capable of wireless peripheral access including Bluetooth and NFC (count of Input 1) Metrics ------- Coverage ^^^^^^^^ .. list-table:: * - **Metric** - | The ratio of devices properly configured to disable wireless peripheral access * - **Calculation** - :code:`M3 / M4` .. history .. authors .. license
