Why is this CIS Control critical?
As delivered from manufacturers and resellers, the default configurations for network infrastructure devices are geared for ease-of-deployment and ease-of-use – not security. Open services and ports, default accounts (including service accounts) or passwords, support for older (vulnerable) protocols, pre-installation of unneeded software; all can be exploitable in their default state. The management of the secure configurations for networking devices is not a one-time event, but a process that involves regularly reevaluating not only the configuration items but also the allowed traffic flows. Attackers take advantage of network devices becoming less securely configured over time as users demand exceptions for specific business needs. Sometimes the exceptions are deployed and then left undone when they are no longer applicable to the business needs. In some cases, the security risk of the exception is neither properly analyzed nor measured against the associated business need and can change over time. Attackers search for vulnerable default settings, gaps or inconsistencies in firewall rule sets, routers, and switches and use those holes to penetrate defenses. They exploit flaws in these devices to gain access to networks, redirect traffic on a network, and intercept information while in transmission. Through such actions, the attacker gains access to sensitive data, alters important information, or even uses a compromised machine to pose as another trusted system on the network.
Network Radar 2.0.4 – Manage and configure network devices. August 12, 2016 Network Radar is an easy-to-use network discovery and management tool that will allow you to retrieve detailed information on network devices. Configure the basic network settings. Choose whether you want to enable automatic network optimization and auto backups (we recommend keeping both enabled). Set up your UniFi devices. If you have unadopted UniFi devices connected to your network, you will be able to configure them during this step. Create a WiFi network. 6 To configure the network adapter card settings, click Configure. The Properties dialog box for your network adapter appears. This dialog box has seven tabs that let you configure the adapter: General: Shows basic information about the adapter, such as the device type and status. Advanced: Lets you set a variety of device-specific parameters that affect the operation of the adapter.
Main Points:
- Compare all network device configuration against approved security configurations defined for each network device in use and alert when any deviations are discovered.
- Manage all network devices using multi-factor authentication and encrypted sessions.

The trust level determines the default level of access that devices on your network have to your computer. Any device on your network that is not explicitly Trusted or Restricted uses the trust level of your network. The initial network trust level is set based on the configuration of your computer.
When you change the trust level of your network, Norton assigns the same trust level to all the devices that are connected to that network. You can change the default network settings for individual devices by changing the trust level of each device to trust or restrict.
If you use a wireless network that is not secure, the default trust level of all the devices that are on the network is Public.

- Start Norton.If you see the My Norton window, next to Device Security, click Open.
- In the Norton main window, click Settings.
- In the Settings window, click Firewall.
- On the General Settings tab, in the Network Trust row, click Configure.
- In the Network Trust window, under Trust Level, choose one of the following:
- Full Trust to allow all network traffic that your computer receives from Trusted networks. Known attacks and infections are still monitored. This setting should be selected only when you are sure that the network is completely safe.
- Private to protect your computer from known attacks and unexpected traffic and to share files, folders, media, and printers with other devices on your network. To set the trust level to Private, your computer must meet the following requirements: it does not have the public IP address; it is connected to LAN through a secure connection; its network category in Windows Vista is set to private.
- Public to protect your computer from known attacks and unexpected traffic and block sharing of files, folders, media, and printers with other devices on your network. This setting also blocks remote desktop connections by default.You can configure the Public Network Exceptions setting to share files, folders, media, and printers and set up remote desktop connection with devices over the network.
- Restricted to block devices on your network from communicating with your computer. Devices on restricted networks can still browse websites, send and receive email, or transmit other communications.
- Click Apply, and then click OK.
