Restrict Traffic Over Hybrid Connections

CCC.VPC.CN10 · Networking

Ensure that private connections, VPNs, and transit hubs only carry explicitly allowed traffic, so that a compromise on one side cannot propagate to the other.

IDTitleDescription
CCC.VPC.CP10Connectivity Options - Private ConnectionThe service can be configured with a dedicated, private, high-speed connection between on-premises networks and the virtual network that does not traverse the public internet.
CCC.VPC.CP12Connectivity Options - Transit HubThe service can connect multiple virtual networks and on-premises networks through a central transit hub in a hub-and-spoke model.
CCC.VPC.CP13Connectivity Options - Site-to-site VPNThe service can establish an encrypted site-to-site VPN connection over the public internet between the virtual network and an on-premises network.

IDTitleDescription
CCC.VPC.TH09Compromise Propagates Over Hybrid ConnectionsPrivate connections, site-to-site VPNs, and transit hubs may be configured with routes and network rules that permit broad access between on-premises networks and the virtual network. A compromise of either side can be used to move laterally into the other, impacting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of resources on both sides of the connection.

Assessment Requirements

IDTextApplicability
CCC.VPC.CN10.AR01When traffic arrives over a private connection, site-to-site VPN, or transit hub, the service MUST deny it unless a network access rule explicitly allows the source range and destination port.tlp-green, tlp-amber, tlp-red
