Microsoft SharePoint 2013 Security Technical Implementation Guide

SRG-APP-000003

SharePoint must support the requirement to initiate a session lock after 15 minutes of system or application inactivity has transpired.

SRG-APP-000516

SharePoint must maintain and support the use of security attributes with stored information.

SRG-APP-000014

SharePoint must utilize approved cryptography to protect the confidentiality of remote access sessions.

SRG-APP-000015

SharePoint must use cryptography to protect the integrity of the remote access session.

SRG-APP-000016

SharePoint must ensure remote sessions for accessing security functions and security-relevant information are audited.

SRG-APP-000039

SharePoint must enforce approved authorizations for controlling the flow of information between interconnected systems in accordance with applicable policy.

SRG-APP-000516

SharePoint must identify data type, specification, and usage when transferring information between different security domains so policy restrictions may be applied.

SRG-APP-000047

SharePoint must provide the ability to prohibit the transfer of unsanctioned information in accordance with security policy.

SRG-APP-000068

SharePoint must display an approved system use notification message or banner before granting access to the system.

SRG-APP-000090

SharePoint must allow designated organizational personnel to select which auditable events are to be audited by specific components of the system.

SRG-APP-000516

SharePoint must reject or delay, as defined by the organization, network traffic generated above configurable traffic volume thresholds.

SRG-APP-000112

SharePoint must prevent the execution of prohibited mobile code.

SRG-APP-000156

SharePoint must use replay-resistant authentication mechanisms for network access to privileged accounts.

SRG-APP-000180

SharePoint must uniquely identify and authenticate non-organizational users (or processes acting on behalf of non-organizational users).

SRG-APP-000179

SharePoint must implement required cryptographic protections using cryptographic modules complying with applicable federal laws, Executive Orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidance.

SRG-APP-000514

SharePoint must employ NSA-approved cryptography to protect classified information.

SRG-APP-000555

SharePoint must employ FIPS-validated cryptography to protect unclassified information when such information must be separated from individuals who have the necessary clearances yet lack the necessary access approvals.

SRG-APP-000219

SharePoint must ensure authentication of both client and server during the entire session. An example of this is SSL Mutual Authentication.

SRG-APP-000220

SharePoint must terminate user sessions upon user logoff, and when idle time limit is exceeded.

SRG-APP-000441

SharePoint must maintain the confidentiality of information during aggregation, packaging, and transformation in preparation for transmission. When transmitting data, applications need to leverage transmission protection mechanisms such as TLS, SSL VPNs, or IPSec.

SRG-APP-000219

SharePoint must implement an information system isolation boundary that minimizes the number of nonsecurity functions included within the boundary containing security functions.

SRG-APP-000238

SharePoint must implement security functions as a layered structure minimizing interactions between layers of the design and avoiding any dependence by lower layers on the functionality or correctness of higher layers.

SRG-APP-000440

SharePoint must employ cryptographic mechanisms preventing the unauthorized disclosure of information during transmission, unless the transmitted data is otherwise protected by alternative physical measures.

SRG-APP-000340

SharePoint must prevent non-privileged users from circumventing malicious code protection capabilities.

SRG-APP-000179

SharePoint must use mechanisms for authentication to a cryptographic module that meet the requirements of applicable federal laws, Executive Orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidance for such authentication.
