The CA API Gateway must employ automated mechanisms to detect the addition of unauthorized components or devices.
This requirement addresses configuration management of the network device. The network device must automatically detect the installation of unauthorized software or hardware onto the device itself....Rule Medium Severity -

Group -
The CA API Gateway must be installed on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) Version 6.7 or higher.
The API Gateway (Appliance version) depends on specific RHEL capabilities for the security, logging, and auditing subsystems. Installation on alternative or older RHEL versions may create vulnerabi...Rule High Severity -
The CA API Gateway must employ RADIUS + LDAPS or LDAPS to centrally manage authentication settings.
The use of authentication servers or other centralized management servers for providing centralized authentication services is required for network device management. Maintaining local administrato...Rule Medium Severity -
The CA API Gateway must shut down by default upon audit failure (unless availability is an overriding concern).
It is critical that when the network device is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required, it take action to mitigate the failure. Audit processing failures include: software/hardware err...Rule Medium Severity -
In the event the authentication server is unavailable, there must be one local account of last resort.
Authentication for administrative (privileged-level) access to the device is required at all times. An account can be created on the device's local database for use in an emergency, such as when th...Rule Medium Severity -
The CA API Gateway must enforce a minimum 15-character password length.
Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting attempts at guessing and brute-force attacks. Password length is one factor of several that helps to d...Rule Medium Severity -
If multifactor authentication is not supported and passwords must be used, the CA API Gateway must require that when a password is changed, the characters are changed in at least 8 of the positions within the password.
If the application allows the user to consecutively reuse extensive portions of passwords, this increases the chances of password compromise by increasing the window of opportunity for attempts at ...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.
