<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The network device must authenticate Network Time Protocol sources using authentication that is cryptographically based.
<VulnDiscussion>If Network Time Protocol is not authenticated, an attacker can introduce a rogue NTP server. This rogue server can then be us...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000400
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The network device must prohibit the use of cached authenticators after an organization-defined time period.
<VulnDiscussion>Some authentication implementations can be configured to use cached authenticators. If cached authentication information is ...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000408
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
Network devices performing maintenance functions must restrict use of these functions to authorized personnel only.
<VulnDiscussion>There are security-related issues arising from software brought into the network device specifically for diagnostic and repai...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000411
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The network devices must use FIPS-validated Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code (HMAC) to protect the integrity of nonlocal maintenance and diagnostic communications.
<VulnDiscussion>Unapproved mechanisms that are used for authentication to the cryptographic module are not verified and therefore cannot be r...Rule High Severity -
SRG-APP-000412
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The network device must be configured to implement cryptographic mechanisms using a FIPS 140-2 approved algorithm to protect the confidentiality of remote maintenance sessions
<VulnDiscussion>This requires the use of secure protocols instead of their unsecured counterparts, such as SSH instead of telnet, SCP instead...Rule High Severity -
SRG-APP-000435
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The network device must be configured to protect against known types of denial-of-service (DoS) attacks by employing organization-defined security safeguards.
<VulnDiscussion>DoS is a condition when a resource is not available for legitimate users. When this occurs, the organization either cannot ac...Rule Medium Severity -

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The network device must off-load audit records onto a different system or media than the system being audited.
<VulnDiscussion>Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Off-loading is a common...Rule Medium Severity -
If the network device uses mandatory access control, the network device must enforce organization-defined mandatory access control policies over all subjects and objects.
<VulnDiscussion>Mandatory access control policies constrain what actions subjects can take with information obtained from data objects for wh...Rule Medium Severity -

The network device must generate audit records when successful/unsuccessful attempts to modify administrator privileges occur.
<VulnDiscussion>Without generating audit records that are specific to the security and mission needs of the organization, it would be difficu...Rule Medium Severity -

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.
