Configure Prohibited Traffic list

The PCI data security standards requires that systems in a cardholder data environment only include services necessary on the system. Using the Prohibited Traffic list, PCI compliance solutions administrators can define a list of prohibited services that they do not expect to see on systems within the environment.

To view the Prohibited Traffic list, do the following:

1. Select Configure > Data Enrichment > Lists and Lookups.
2. Click the Prohibited Traffic list. The Prohibited Traffic lookup file (prohibited_traffic.csv) appears in the lookup editor.

The first line in the file describes the fields in the file.

Field	Description	Example
transport	The transport protocol.	TCP
src	The host that is the source of the activity.	* to match all hosts, or the host name (for example "ACME_host_001")
src_pci_domain	The source domain of of the activity.	cardholder
dest	The host that is the destination of the activity.	* to match all hosts, or the host name (for example "ACME_host_001")
dest_pci_domain	The source domain of of the activity.	cardholder
dest_port	The destination port of the activity.	80
is_prohibited	Is the service/traffic/port prohibited?	for example, true or false
is_secure	Is the traffic for the given service encrypted (secure)?	for example, true or false
note	This can be whatever the user wants.
src_category	Category of the source	for example, pci_cardholder
dest_category	Category of the source	for example, pci_cardholder
