This requirement reduces risk in cloud network security by ensuring network monitoring is defined, consistently implemented and demonstrably effective across cloud environments. It supports the organization's need to secure cloud-based assets, data and services while managing cloud-specific risk.
Implement documented controls for network monitoring within segmentation, firewalls, secure connectivity, traffic protection and network visibility. Define scope, ownership, required evidence, monitoring, review cadence and escalation criteria; automate validation where practical.
