As follows:

  • At least once every 12 months and after any changes to segmentation controls/methods
  • Covering all segmentation controls/methods in use.
  • According to the entity's defined penetration testing methodology.
  • Confirming that the segmentation controls/methods are operational and effective, and isolate the CDE from all out-of-scope systems.
  • Confirming effectiveness of any use of isolation to separate systems with differing security levels (see Requirement 2.2.3).
