CME-203

Network Segmentation (VLANs/Subnets)

Description

Separates network traffic into isolated segments by trust zone, preventing lateral movement between zones (e.g., DMZ, internal, management).

CVSS Vector Impacts

Metric Transition Rationale
Attack Vector (AV) N A Compromised host in one segment cannot directly reach other segments
Scope (S) C U Blast radius limited to network segment

CWE Relationships

Verification

Verify network topology shows segmentation between trust zones
