SI-4 (01)System Monitoring | System-wide Intrusion Detection System

Moderate
High

>Control Description

Connect and configure individual intrusion detection tools into a system-wide intrusion detection system.

>FedRAMP Baseline Requirements

No FedRAMP-specific parameter values or requirements for this baseline.

>Discussion

Linking individual intrusion detection tools into a system-wide intrusion detection system provides additional coverage and effective detection capabilities. The information contained in one intrusion detection tool can be shared widely across the organization, making the system-wide detection capability more robust and powerful.
