DBN-6300 NDM Security Technical Implementation Guide

Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • The DBN-6300 must use multifactor authentication for network access (remote and nonlocal) to privileged accounts.

    Multifactor authentication requires using two or more factors to achieve authentication. Factors include: (i) something a user knows (e.g., password/PIN); (ii) something a user has (e.g., crypto...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • If multifactor authentication is not supported and passwords must be used, the DBN-6300 must enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one upper-case character be used.

    Use of a complex passwords helps to increase the time and resources required to compromise the password. Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisti...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • The DBN-6300 must enforce a 60-day maximum password lifetime restriction.

    Any password, no matter how complex, can eventually be cracked. Therefore, passwords need to be changed at specific intervals. One method of minimizing this risk is to use complex passwords and p...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • The DBN-6300 must terminate all network connections associated with a device management session at the end of the session, or the session must be terminated after 10 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...
    Rule High Severity
  • The DBN-6300 must automatically terminate a network administrator session after organization-defined conditions or trigger events requiring session disconnect.

    Automatic session termination addresses the termination of administrator-initiated logical sessions in contrast to the termination of network connections that are associated with communications ses...
