Fix Recommendation

Obtain the SSP with the site's security policy. Configure the ProxySG to enforce approved authorizations by employing identity-based, role-based, and/or attribute-based authorization for access to proxied websites.

1. Log on to the web Management Console.
2. Click Configuration >> Visual Policy Manager.
3. Click "Launch".
4. For each Web Access Layer that is configured, right-click the "Source" of each column and click "Set".
5. Select objects based on traffic attributes, content, source, or headers as required by the site's security policy.
6. For each Web Access Layer that is configured, right-click the "Destination" of each column and click "Set".
7. Select objects based on traffic attributes, content, destination, or headers as required by the site's security policy.
8. Click File >> Install Policy on SG Appliance.

Check Contents

Obtain the SSP with the site's security policy. Verify that identity-based, role-based, and/or attribute-based authorization is configured for access to proxied websites. Verify that security policies and rules are configured and applied.

1. Log on to the web Management Console.
2. Click Configuration >> Visual Policy Manager.
3. Click "Launch".
4. For each rule within each Web Access Layer, verify that the "Source" column for each rule contains something other than "any" (any is the default value). Rules must be verified as being compliant with the site's security policy.

If Symantec ProxySG does not enforce approved authorizations for controlling the flow of information within the network based on attribute- and content-based inspection of the source, destination, headers, and/or content of the communications traffic, this is a finding.
