CA API Gateway NDM Security Technical Implementation Guide
Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark
-
The CA API Gateway must automatically remove or disable emergency accounts, except the emergency administration account, after 72 hours.
Emergency accounts are administrator accounts which are established in response to crisis situations where the need for rapid account activation is required. Therefore, emergency account activation...Rule Medium Severity -
The CA API Gateway must transmit organization-defined access authorization information using organization-defined security safeguards to organization-defined information systems which enforce access control decisions.
Protecting access authorization information (i.e., access control decisions) ensures that authorization information cannot be altered, spoofed, or otherwise compromised during transmission. In dis...Rule Medium Severity -
The CA API Gateway must be configured to synchronize internal information system clocks with the primary and secondary time sources located in different geographic regions using redundant authoritative time sources.
The loss of connectivity to a particular authoritative time source will result in the loss of time synchronization (free-run mode) and increasingly inaccurate time stamps on audit events and other ...Rule Low Severity -
The CA API Gateway must authenticate NTP endpoint devices before establishing a network connection using bidirectional authentication that is cryptographically based.
Without authenticating devices, unidentified or unknown devices may be introduced, thereby facilitating malicious activity. Bidirectional authentication provides stronger safeguards to validate the...Rule Low Severity -
The CA API Gateway must obtain LDAPS server certificates securely to use bidirectional authentication that is cryptographically based.
Without authenticating devices, unidentified or unknown devices may be introduced, thereby facilitating malicious activity. Bidirectional authentication provides stronger safeguards to validate the...Rule Medium Severity -
The CA API Gateway must generate audit records showing starting and ending time for administrator access to the system.
Without generating audit records that are specific to the security and mission needs of the organization, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an in...Rule Medium Severity -
The CA API Gateway must off-load audit records onto a different system or media than the system being audited.
Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Off-loading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity.Rule Low Severity -
The CA API Gateway must employ automated mechanisms to assist in the tracking of security incidents.
Despite the investment in perimeter defense technologies, enclaves are still faced with detecting, analyzing, and remediating network breaches and exploits that have made it past the network device...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.
