Fix Recommendation

Ensure the website enforces the use of IANA well-known ports for HTTP and HTTPS.

Check Contents

Review the website to determine if HTTP and HTTPS are used in accordance with well-known ports (e.g., 80 and 443) or those ports and services as registered and approved for use by the DOD PPSM.

Verify that any variation in PPS is documented, registered, and approved by the PPSM.

If well-known ports and services are not approved for use by PPSM, this is a finding.
