Re: Compliance and SSH

[sapran <sapran () gmail com>]

Hi Mike,

Fellow QSA told me that PCI requirement 1.2.1 might be applied in your
case. The requirement reads:

"1.2.1 Restrict inbound and outbound traffic to that which is
necessary for the cardholder data environment."

So, you can restrict the traffic while it is not explicitly required
by business need.

Best regards,
Vlad
