Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • The ALG that is part of a CDS, when transferring information between different security domains, must use organization-defined data type identifiers to validate data essential for information flow decisions.

    <VulnDiscussion>Information flow decisions based on invalid data may allow unintended and unauthorized data flows, and therefore risk the con...

  • The ALG that is part of a CDS must uniquely identify and authenticate destination by organization, system, application, and/or individual for information transfer.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Attribution is a critical component of a security concept of operations. The ability to identify source and destination point...

  • The ALG that is part of a CDS, when transferring information between different security domains, must apply the same security policy filtering to metadata as it applies to data payloads.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Subjecting metadata to the same filtering and inspection policies as payload data helps to mitigate the risk of data compromi...
