Container Platform Security Requirements Guide
Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark
-
The container platform must continuously scan components, containers, and images for vulnerabilities.
Finding vulnerabilities quickly within the container platform and within containers deployed within the platform is important to keep the overall platform secure. When a vulnerability within a comp...Rule Medium Severity -

The container platform must use a FIPS-validated cryptographic module to implement encryption services for unclassified information requiring confidentiality.
Unvalidated cryptography is viewed by NIST as providing no protection to the information or data. In effect, the data would be considered unprotected plaintext. If the agency specifies that the inf...Rule High Severity -
SRG-APP-000645
Group -
The container platform must prohibit or restrict the use of protocols that transmit unencrypted authentication information or use flawed cryptographic algorithms for transmission.
The use of secure ports, protocols and services within the container platform must be controlled and conform to the PPSM CAL. Those ports, protocols, and services that fall outside the PPSM CAL mus...Rule High Severity -

The container platform must enforce organization-defined circumstances and/or usage conditions for organization-defined accounts.
Activity under unusual conditions can indicate hostile activity. For example, what is normal activity during business hours can indicate hostile activity if it occurs during off hours. Depending o...Rule Medium Severity -

The container platform must disable accounts when the accounts are no longer associated to a user.
Disabling expired, inactive, or otherwise anomalous accounts supports the concepts of least privilege and least functionality which reduce the attack surface of the system.Rule Medium Severity -

The container platform must implement multifactor authentication for local; network; and/or remote access to privileged accounts; and/or nonprivileged accounts such that one of the factors is provided by a device separate from the system gaining access.
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 container platform must for password-based authentication, maintain a list of commonly used, expected, or compromised passwords on an organization-defined frequency.
Password-based authentication applies to passwords regardless of whether they are used in single-factor or multi-factor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pas...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.
