Line no.:  5
Comment :  e. Section 6.5.4.2 discusses protective software.  Nowhere in the guidelines is there any discussion about protective hardware, e.g., firewalls, intrusion detection systems, etc.  A system vendor could supply a third-party piece of hardware that would satifsy the security requirement.
