ISEC7 Sphere Security Technical Implementation Guide

Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • The ISEC7 EMM Suite must alert the ISSO and SA (at a minimum) in the event of an audit processing failure.

    <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....

  • The ISEC7 EMM Suite must back up audit records at least every seven days onto a different system or system component than the system or component being audited, provide centralized management and configuration of the content to be captured in audit records generated by all ISEC7 EMM Suite components, and off-load audit records onto a different system or media than the system being audited.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Protection of log data includes assuring log data is not accidentally lost or deleted. Backing up audit records to a differen...

  • ISEC7 EMM Suite must disable or delete local account created during application installation and configuration.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;The ISEC7 local account password complexity controls do not meet DoD requirements; therefore, admins have the capability to c...

  • When using PKI-based authentication for user access, the ISEC7 EMM Suite must validate certificates by constructing a certification path (which includes status information) to an accepted trust anchor.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Without path validation, an informed trust decision by the relying party cannot be made when presented with any certificate n...

  • The ISEC7 EMM Suite must accept Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credentials.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;The use of PIV credentials facilitates standardization and reduces the risk of unauthorized access. DoD has mandated the use...

  • Before establishing a local, remote, and/or network connection with any endpoint device, the ISEC7 EMM Suite must use a bidirectional authentication mechanism configured with a FIPS-validated Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) cipher block algorithm to authenticate with the device.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Without device-to-device authentication, communications with malicious devices may be established. Bidirectional authenticati...

  • The ISEC7 EMM Suite must allow the use of DoD PKI established certificate authorities for verification of the establishment of protected sessions.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Untrusted Certificate Authorities (CA) can issue certificates, but they may be issued by organizations or individuals that se...

  • The ISEC7 EMM Suite must protect the confidentiality and integrity of transmitted information during preparation for transmission and during reception using cryptographic mechanisms.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Without protection of the transmitted information, confidentiality and integrity may be compromised since unprotected communi...

  • The ISEC7 EMM Suite must use FIPS-validated SHA-2 or higher hash function for digital signature generation and verification (non-legacy use).

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Without cryptographic integrity protections, information can be altered by unauthorized users without detection. To protect ...

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.
