Map firewall controls, evidence, and gaps to SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria. Use when assessing Type I or II, logical access, operations, change management, logging, vendor access, incident response, operating-effectiveness samples, or CC6.1, CC6.6, CC7.2, and CC8.1. Parse raw configs first.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

## Overview

Use this skill to answer questions like “what firewall evidence do we need for SOC 2?” or “how should our NGFW controls map to Trust Services Criteria?” The core answer is: SOC 2 reports cover controls over a defined system, criteria, and period of time. A firewall or NGFW is not “SOC 2 compliant” by itself. It can support the service organization’s controls for logical access, system operations, change management, risk mitigation, monitoring, incident response, availability, confidentiality, and privacy-supporting restrictions when it is configured, monitored, reviewed, and evidenced consistently.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mechubsec/fwskillsshare/soc2-ngfw-compliance@sha256:fcc50d5cb7298f68

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
