| ID | M0808 |
| NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 4 | SC-8 |
| IEC 62443-3-3:2013 | SR 4.1 |

Description
Utilize strong cryptographic techniques and protocols to prevent eavesdropping on network communications.
Techniques Addressed by Mitigation
| Name | Use |
|---|---|
| Module Firmware | The encryption of firmware should be considered to prevent adversaries from identifying possible vulnerabilities within the firmware. |
| Network Sniffing | Ensure that wired and/or wireless traffic is encrypted when feasible. Use best practices for authentication protocols, such as Kerberos, and ensure web traffic that may contain credentials is protected by SSL/TLS.1 |
| System Firmware | The encryption of firmware should be considered to prevent adversaries from identifying possible vulnerabilities within the firmware. |
| Wireless Compromise | Utilize strong cryptographic techniques and protocols to prevent eavesdropping on network communications. |
| Wireless Sniffing | Utilize strong cryptographic techniques and protocols to prevent eavesdropping on network communications. 2 |
