If 0.0.0.0/0 is not included in the whitelists of the Time Series Database (TSDB) instance, the evaluation result is Compliant.

Scenarios

If 0.0.0.0/0 is included in the whitelists of a TSDB instance, the instance allows access from all IP addresses. This causes high security risks.

Risk level

Default risk level: high.

When you apply this rule, you can change the risk level based on your business requirements.

Compliance evaluation logic

  • If 0.0.0.0/0 is not included in the whitelists of the TSDB instance, the evaluation result is Compliant.
  • If 0.0.0.0/0 is included in a whitelist of the TSDB instance, the evaluation result is Incompliant. For more information about how to remediate an incompliant configuration, see the "Incompliance remediation" section of this topic.
