Central Log Server Security Requirements Guide
Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark
-
The Central Log Server must prevent the installation of organization-defined software and firmware components without verification that the component has been digitally signed using a certificate that is recognized and approved by the organization.
Software and firmware components prevented from installation unless signed with recognized and approved certificates include software and firmware version updates, patches, service packs, device dr...Rule Medium Severity -
The Central Log Server must implement multifactor authentication for local; network; and/or remote access to privileged accounts; and/or nonprivileged accounts such that the device meets organization-defined strength of mechanism requirements.
The purpose of requiring a device that is separate from the system to which the user is attempting to gain access for one of the factors during multifactor authentication is to reduce the likelihoo...Rule Medium Severity -
The Central Log Server must for password-based authentication, update the list of passwords on an organization-defined frequency.
Password-based authentication applies to passwords regardless of whether they are used in single-factor or multifactor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pass...Rule Medium Severity -
The Central Log Server must for password-based authentication, verify when users create or update passwords, that the passwords are not found on the list of commonly-used, expected, or compromised passwords in IA-5 (1) (a).
Password-based authentication applies to passwords regardless of whether they are used in single-factor or multifactor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pass...Rule Medium Severity -
The Central Log Server must for password-based authentication, require immediate selection of a new password upon account recovery.
Password-based authentication applies to passwords regardless of whether they are used in single-factor or multifactor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pass...Rule Medium Severity -
The Central Log Server must for password-based authentication, allow user selection of long passwords and passphrases, including spaces and all printable characters.
Password-based authentication applies to passwords regardless of whether they are used in single-factor or multifactor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pass...Rule Medium Severity -
The Central Log Server must for password-based authentication, employ automated tools to assist the user in selecting strong password authenticators.
Password-based authentication applies to passwords regardless of whether they are used in single-factor or multifactor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pass...Rule Medium Severity -
The Central Log Server must for public key-based authentication, implement a local cache of revocation data to support path discovery and validation.
Public key cryptography is a valid authentication mechanism for individuals, machines, and devices. For PKI solutions, status information for certification paths includes certificate revocation lis...Rule Medium Severity -
The Central Log Server must include only approved trust anchors in trust stores or certificate stores managed by the organization.
Public key infrastructure (PKI) certificates are certificates with visibility external to organizational systems and certificates related to the internal operations of systems, such as application-...Rule Medium Severity -
The Central Log Server must synchronize system clocks within and between systems or system components.
Time synchronization of system clocks is essential for the correct execution of many system services, including identification and authentication processes that involve certificates and time-of-day...Rule Medium Severity

The content of the drawer really is up to you. It could have form fields, definition lists, text lists, labels, charts, progress bars, etc. Spacing recommendation is 24px margins. You can put tabs in here, and can also make the drawer scrollable.
