Interpretation of BPA Reports

L3 Networker

I generated a BPA report on the AIOPS website using the tsf file from Strata, but I am a bit confused about the terms referenced in the report's interpretation.

Among them, CSC controls 9.2, 12, etc., specifically refer to? Can anyone explain it.

I went to download the file: CIS.Controls_v8_Critical_Security.Controls_2023:08.pdf

The description in section 9.2 is:

I can't speak to the "CSC" part of your question, but I can tell you the call out is specifically because your rule allows ANY application over ANY port.

I'm not suggesting this rule as deployed in your organization is wrong for any particular reason.  This alert in the BPA report is suggesting that in a lot of use cases such a rule (any -- any) isn't suggested and should be restricted to defined applications over specific ports (Either app-default, or some other defined application.)
