Rule version EX19-ED-000109 · STIG v2 · 2024-12-06
To ensure hostile insiders are unable to easily commit DoS attacks and reduce the effectiveness of mail flow throughout the environment, a second Edge server is deployed to allow for multiple paths of mail flow both internally and externally into the environment. This prevents a single point-of-failure and allows for service to continue in the event of a DoS attack targeting one Edge role.
Review the EDSP for current configuration.
On the mailbox server, open a PowerShell prompt and run the following command:
Get-EdgeSubscription
If there is only one subscription on each server, this is a finding.
At a minimum, a second server must be deployed and subscribed to.
