Benchmark: 1.1.4.c Observe network configurations to verify that a firewall is in place at each Internet connection and between any demilitarized zone (DMZ) and the internal network zone, per the documented configuration standards and network diagrams
Description
Using a firewall on every Internet connection coming into (and out of) the network, and between any DMZ and the internal network, allows the organization to monitor and control access and minimizes the chances of a malicious individual obtaining access to the internal network via an unprotected connection.
Usage
