CMMC 1.0 Practice SI.1.212 Requirement:
Update malicious code protection mechanisms when new releases are available.
CMMC 1.0 SI.1.212 Requirement Explanation:
In general, anti-malware software compares a file against a signature database to decide if the file is malicious. For anti-malware software to be effective the signature database must remain updated. If the signature database is outdated then it can not detect new malware.
Example CMMC 1.0 SI.1.212 Implementation:
Configure your anti-malware software to update its malware signature database. The updates should be periodic (e.g. every day at 8:00 AM) and automatic.
CMMC 1.0 SI.1.212 Scenario(s):
- Scenario 1:
Alice set up the anti-malware software on her computers to update their signature databases hourly.
