Risk Level

🔴 Critical — Immediate audit-fail condition for SOC 2 Type II and FedRAMP High

---

Description

No network access control policy documentation, role permission matrices, or access control runbooks are discoverable in connected knowledge systems (Confluence, Slack, internal wikis). For a FedRAMP High-authorized environment, the inability to produce documented access policies on demand constitutes an immediate audit-fail condition.

Affected Scope: All network segments — Corporate, Production, FedRAMP boundary, VPN

---

Compliance Controls Violated

Framework	Control	Requirement
SOC 2 Type II	CC6.1	Logical and physical access controls must be documented
FedRAMP High	AC-1	Access Control Policy and Procedures must be formally documented and disseminated
ISO 27001	A.9.1.1	Access control policy must be established, documented and reviewed

---

Remediation Action

Author and publish a Network Access Control Policy document covering:

1. Role-based access definitions per network segment (Corporate, Production, DMZ, FedRAMP boundary, VPN tunnel groups)
2. Access approval and provisioning workflows
3. Quarterly access review cadence and attestation process
4. Escalation paths for policy exceptions

Target: Publish to Confluence and cross-link from all relevant runbooks.
Deadline: Within 30 days of issue creation.
