The application server must implement cryptography mechanisms to protect the integrity of the remote access session.
Encryption is critical for protection of remote access sessions. If encryption is not being used for integrity, malicious users may gain the ability to modify the application server configuration. ...Rule Medium Severity -

The application server management interface must retain the Standard Mandatory DoD Notice and Consent Banner on the screen until users acknowledge the usage conditions and take explicit actions to log on for further access.
To establish acceptance of system usage policy, a click-through banner at the application server management interface logon is required. The banner shall prevent further activity on the application...Rule Medium Severity -

The application server must generate log records when successful/unsuccessful attempts to access subject privileges occur.
Accessing a subject's privileges can be used to elevate a lower-privileged subject's privileges temporarily in order to cause harm to the application server or to gain privileges to operate tempora...Rule Medium Severity -

The application server must initiate session logging upon startup.
Session logging activities are developed, integrated, and used in consultation with legal counsel in accordance with applicable federal laws, Executive Orders, directives, policies, or regulations.Rule Medium Severity -

The application server must produce log records containing sufficient information to establish when (date and time) the events occurred.
Application server logging capability is critical for accurate forensic analysis. Without sufficient and accurate information, a correct replay of the events cannot be determined. Ascertaining th...Rule Medium Severity -

The application server must alert the SA and ISSO, at a minimum, in the event of a log processing failure.
Logs are essential to monitor the health of the system, investigate changes that occurred to the system, or investigate a security incident. When log processing fails, the events during the failur...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000116
Group -
The application server must use internal system clocks to generate time stamps for log records.
Without the use of an approved and synchronized time source configured on the systems, events cannot be accurately correlated and analyzed to determine what is transpiring within the application se...Rule Medium Severity -

The application server must protect log information from any type of unauthorized read access.
If log data were to become compromised, then competent forensic analysis and discovery of the true source of potentially malicious system activity is difficult, if not impossible, to achieve. In ad...Rule Medium Severity -

The application server must back up log records at least every seven days onto a different system or system component than the system or component being logged.
Protection of log data includes assuring log data is not accidentally lost or deleted. Backing up log records to a different system or onto separate media from the system the application server is ...Rule Medium Severity -
