The CA API Gateway that provides intermediary services for TLS must be configured to comply with the required TLS settings in NIST SP 800-52.
<VulnDiscussion>SP 800-52 provides guidance on using the most secure version and configuration of the TLS/SSL protocol. Using older unauthori...Rule Medium Severity -

The CA API Gateway providing intermediary services for remote access communications traffic must use NIST FIPS-validated cryptography to protect the integrity of remote access sessions.
<VulnDiscussion>Without cryptographic integrity protections, information can be altered by unauthorized users without detection. Remote acce...Rule Medium Severity -

The CA API Gateway must protect audit information from unauthorized deletion.
<VulnDiscussion>If audit data becomes compromised, forensic analysis and discovery of the true source of potentially malicious system activit...Rule Medium Severity -
The CA API Gateway must protect audit tools from unauthorized access.
<VulnDiscussion>Protecting audit data also includes identifying and protecting the tools used to view and manipulate log data. Therefore, pro...Rule Medium Severity -
