  • The CA API Gateway providing user access control intermediary services must generate audit records showing starting and ending time for user access to the system.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Without generating audit records that are specific to the security and mission needs of the organization, it would be difficu...

  • The CA API Gateway providing user access control intermediary services must automatically terminate a user session when organization-defined conditions or trigger events that require a session disconnect occur.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Automatic session termination addresses the termination of user-initiated logical sessions in contrast to the termination of ...

  • The CA API Gateway providing user access control intermediary services must provide a logoff capability for user-initiated communications sessions.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;If a user cannot explicitly end a session, the session may remain open and be exploited by an attacker. However, for some ty...

  • The CA API Gateway providing user access control intermediary services must display an explicit logoff message to users indicating the reliable termination of authenticated communications sessions.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;If a user cannot explicitly end a session, the session may remain open and be exploited by an attacker; this is referred to a...

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.
