 **Note:** CeRTNA does not require any custom firewall rules to be applied. The only requirement is that a local workstation based firewall is enabled with the default settings. Organizations that have a product like Symantec Endpoint Protection will use the Symantec Endpoint Protection firewall, which will disable the Windows Firewall. Regardless of the local firewall that is used, you will need to show the auditor that the firewall for private and public networks is enabled.
