SC-31(2) Maximum Bandwidth
Control enhancement of SC-31 Covert Channel Analysis
Control
Reduce the maximum bandwidth for identified covert [Assignment: Selection (one-or-more): storage | timing] channels to [Assignment: values].
Discussion
The complete elimination of covert channels, especially covert timing channels, is usually not possible without significant performance impacts.
