HP FlexFabric Switch NDM Security Technical Implementation Guide
Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark
-
The HP FlexFabric Switch must allocate audit record storage capacity in accordance with organization-defined audit record storage requirements.
<VulnDiscussion>In order to ensure network devices have a sufficient storage capacity in which to write the audit logs, they need to be able ...Rule Medium Severity -

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The HP FlexFabric Switch must generate an immediate alert when allocated audit record storage volume reaches 75% of repository maximum audit record storage capacity.
<VulnDiscussion>If security personnel are not notified immediately upon storage volume utilization reaching 75%, they are unable to plan for ...Rule Medium Severity -

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The HP FlexFabric Switch must generate an immediate real-time alert of all audit failure events requiring real-time alerts.
<VulnDiscussion>It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required....Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000371-NDM-000296
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The HP FlexFabric Switch must compare internal information system clocks at least every 24 hours with an authoritative time server.
<VulnDiscussion>Inaccurate time stamps make it more difficult to correlate events and can lead to an inaccurate analysis. Determining the cor...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000372-NDM-000297
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The HP FlexFabric Switch must synchronize internal information system clocks to the authoritative time source when the time difference is greater than the organization-defined time period.
<VulnDiscussion>Inaccurate time stamps make it more difficult to correlate events and can lead to an inaccurate analysis. Determining the cor...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000373-NDM-000298
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The HP FlexFabric Switch must be configured to synchronize internal information system clocks with the primary and secondary time sources located in different geographic regions using redundant authoritative time sources.
<VulnDiscussion>The loss of connectivity to a particular authoritative time source will result in the loss of time synchronization (free-run ...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000374-NDM-000299
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The HP FlexFabric Switch must record time stamps for audit records that can be mapped to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) or Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
<VulnDiscussion>If time stamps are not consistently applied and there is no common time reference, it is difficult to perform forensic analys...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000375-NDM-000300
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The HP FlexFabric Switch must record time stamps for audit records that meet a granularity of one second for a minimum degree of precision.
<VulnDiscussion>Without sufficient granularity of time stamps, it is not possible to adequately determine the chronological order of records....Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000397-NDM-000312
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The HP FlexFabric Switch must allow the use of a temporary password for system logons with an immediate change to a permanent password.
<VulnDiscussion>Without providing this capability, an account may be created without a password. Non-repudiation cannot be guaranteed once an...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000411-NDM-000330
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
Applications used for nonlocal maintenance sessions must implement cryptographic mechanisms to protect the integrity of nonlocal maintenance and diagnostic communications.
<VulnDiscussion>This requires the use of secure protocols instead of their unsecured counterparts, such as SSH instead of telnet, SCP instead...Rule Medium Severity -
