JIS General Policy
Wireless Networks Requirements
2.2.9 Wireless Networks
Because of the high risk, this policy is designed to govern the use of wireless
LANs for JIS access, except for public access subscribers. A wireless LAN could
circumvent the network security architecture prescribed in this section. Unless
there is stringent local network security that specifically addresses wireless
LANs, it is easy to install an unauthorized wireless LAN and attach it to a local
network without detection. Without proper security, it is also easy for
unauthorized users to connect through a wireless LAN even if it is authorized.
2.2.9.1 The AOC, at its discretion, may approve connections from personal computers
on wireless networks, or on networks that include wireless segments provided the
agency responsible for the wireless network certifies in writing that it has done the
following:
2.2.9.1.1 Complied with AOC standards for wireless networks.
2.2.9.1.2 Establish, document, and communicate wireless access security practices
within the agency.
2.2.9.1.3 Implement a program to perform an audit on a regular basis in order to locate
any rogue wireless devices.
2.2.9.2 Agencies approved access from wireless networks or networks including
wireless segments shall certify at least once every two years to the AOC, in writing, that
they are adhering to these wireless policies and applicable AOC technical standards.
2.2.9.3 If the AOC implements a wireless network, it must comply with the requirements
of this section.
2.2.9.4 Public access subscribers are not subject to policies on wireless networks.
Public access subscribers do not have access to confidential data and use SSL
for encryption. In addition, public access subscribers will have to pay for any
unauthorized transactions. It is up to them to control and police their networks.
