HYCU Protege Security Technical Implementation Guide

Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • The HYCU virtual appliance must terminate all network connections associated with a device management session at the end of the session, or the session must be terminated after five minutes of inactivity except to fulfill documented and validated mission requirements.

    Terminating an idle session within a short time period reduces the window of opportunity for unauthorized personnel to take control of a management session enabled on the console or console port th...

  • The HYCU virtual appliance must be configured to synchronize internal information system clocks using redundant authoritative time sources.

    The loss of connectivity to a particular authoritative time source will result in the loss of time synchronization (free-run mode) and increasingly inaccurate time stamps on audit events and other ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • The HYCU virtual appliance must limit the number of concurrent sessions to an organization-defined number for each administrator account and/or administrator account type.

    Device management includes the ability to control the number of administrators and management sessions that manage a device. Limiting the number of allowed administrators and sessions per administr...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • If the HYCU virtual appliance uses role-based access control, it must enforce organization-defined role-based access control policies over defined subjects and objects.

    Organizations can create specific roles based on job functions and the authorizations (i.e., privileges) to perform needed operations on organizational information systems associated with the organ...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • The HYCU virtual appliance must audit the execution of privileged functions.

    Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised information system accounts, is a serious and...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • The HYCU virtual appliance must retain the Standard Mandatory DOD Notice and Consent Banner on the screen until the administrator acknowledges the usage conditions and takes explicit actions to log in for further access.

    The banner must be acknowledged by the administrator prior to the device allowing the administrator access to the network device. This provides assurance that the administrator has seen the message...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • The HYCU virtual appliance must automatically audit account modification.

    Since the accounts in the network device are privileged or system-level accounts, account management is vital to the security of the network device. Account management by a designated authority ens...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • The HYCU virtual appliance must be configured to use at least two authentication servers for authenticating users prior to granting administration access.

    Centralized management of authentication settings increases the security of remote and nonlocal access methods. This control is particularly important protection against the insider threat. With ro...

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.
