The DBMS must implement NIST FIPS 140-2 or 140-3 validated cryptographic modules to provision digital signatures.
Use of weak or untested encryption algorithms undermines the purposes of utilizing encryption to protect data. The application must implement cryptographic modules adhering to the higher standards ...Rule Medium Severity -
The DBMS must use NSA-approved cryptography to protect classified information in accordance with the data owner's requirements.
Use of weak or untested encryption algorithms undermines the purposes of utilizing encryption to protect data. The application must implement cryptographic modules adhering to the higher standards ...Rule High Severity -
The DBMS 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 DBMS 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 DBMS 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 multifactor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pass...Rule Medium Severity -
The DBMS 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 multifactor authentication. Long passwords or passphrases are preferable over shorter pass...Rule Medium Severity -
The DBMS must, for password-based authentication, verify that when users create or update passwords, 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 DBMS 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 DBMS 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
