Container Platform Security Requirements Guide
Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark
-
The container platform must prohibit communication using TLS versions 1.0 and 1.1, and SSL 2.0 and 3.0.
The container platform and its components will prohibit the use of SSL and unauthorized versions of TLS protocols to properly secure communication. The use of unsupported protocol exposes vulnerab...Rule Medium Severity -
The container platform must validate certificates used for Transport Layer Security (TLS) functions by performing an RFC 5280-compliant certification path validation.
A certification path is the path from the end entity certificate to a trusted root certification authority (CA). Certification path validation is necessary for a relying party to make an informed d...Rule Medium Severity -
The container platform must use FIPS-validated SHA-2 or higher hash function for digital signature generation and verification (non-legacy use).
Without the use of digital signature, information can be altered by unauthorized accounts accessing or modifying the container platform registry, keystore, and container at runtime. Digital signatu...Rule Medium Severity -
The container platform must implement the capability to centrally review and analyze audit records from multiple components within the system.
Automated mechanisms for centralized reviews and analyses include Security Information and Event Management products.Rule Medium Severity -
The container platform must alert organization-defined personnel or roles upon detection of unauthorized access, modification, or deletion of audit information.
Audit information includes all information needed to successfully audit system activity, such as audit records, audit log settings, audit reports, and personally identifiable information. Audit log...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 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 container platform 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 multi-factor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pas...Rule Medium Severity -
The container platform must for password-based authentication, update the list of passwords when organizational passwords are suspected to have been compromised directly or indirectly.
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 container platform 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 multi-factor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pas...Rule Medium Severity -
The container platform 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 multi-factor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pas...Rule Medium Severity -
The container platform 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 multi-factor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pas...Rule Medium Severity -
The container platform 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 multi-factor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pas...Rule Medium Severity -
The container platform 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 container platform 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.
