Control Statement
The control requirements

Implement cryptographic mechanisms to protect the confidentiality and integrity of remote access sessions.

Supplemental Guidance

Virtual private networks can be used to protect the confidentiality and integrity of remote access sessions. Transport Layer Security (TLS) is an example of a cryptographic protocol that provides end-to-end communications security over networks and is used for Internet communications and online transactions.
