Applications used for nonlocal maintenance sessions must implement cryptographic mechanisms to protect the confidentiality of nonlocal maintenance and diagnostic communications.
This requires the use of secure protocols instead of their unsecured counterparts, such as SSH instead of telnet, SCP instead of FTP, and HTTPS instead of HTTP. If unsecured protocols (lacking cryp...Rule Medium Severity -

DoS is a condition when a resource is not available for legitimate users. When this occurs, the organization either cannot accomplish its mission or must operate at degraded capacity. This require...Rule Medium Severity -
The HP FlexFabric Switch must generate audit records for privileged activities or other system-level access.
Without generating audit records that are specific to the security and mission needs of the organization, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an in...Rule Medium Severity -
The HP FlexFabric Switch must generate audit log events for a locally developed list of auditable events.
Auditing and logging are key components of any security architecture. Logging the actions of specific events provides a means to investigate an attack; to recognize resource utilization or capacity...Rule Medium Severity -
The HP FlexFabric Switch must support organizational requirements to conduct backups of system level information contained in the information system when changes occur or weekly, whichever is sooner.
System-level information includes default and customized settings and security attributes, including ACLs that relate to the HP FlexFabric Switch configuration, as well as software required for the...Rule Low Severity
