Ensure no workspace network security groups allow inbound traffic from the Internet from 0.0.0.0/0 to any infrastructure ports

MoyenneNiveau 1Revue manuelleibmcloud

Description

It is recommended that inbound traffic from the Internet to high-risk ports is restricted, following the principle of least privilege access. The ports specified in this control are DNS (53), POP3 (110), SMTP (25). DHCP (67, 68), SNMP (161, 162). Removing unrestricted inbound connectivity from the Internet to infrastructure ports and services, such as DNS and DHCP, reduces PowerVS resources’ exposure to risk.
