The Cisco ISE must limit the number of CLI and GUI sessions to an organization-defined number.
Device management includes the ability to control the number of management sessions that manage a device. Limiting the number of allowed sessions is helpful in limiting risks related to DoS attacks...Rule Low Severity -
The Cisco ISE must change the password for the local CLI and web-based account when members who have access to the password leave the role and are no longer authorized access.
If shared/group account credentials are not terminated when individuals leave the group, the user that left the group can still gain access even though they are no longer authorized. There may also...Rule Medium Severity -
For the local web-based account of last resort, the Cisco ISE must automatically audit account creation.
Upon gaining access to a network device, an attacker will often first attempt to create a persistent method of reestablishing access. One way to accomplish this is to create a new account. Notifica...Rule Medium Severity -
For the local web-based account of last resort and the default local CLI account, the Cisco ISE must automatically audit account modification.
Since the accounts in the network device are privileged or system-level accounts, account management is vital to the security of the network device. Account management by a designated authority ens...Rule Medium Severity -
For the local web-based account of last resort, the Cisco ISE must automatically audit account disabling actions.
Account management, as a whole, ensures access to the network device is being controlled in a secure manner by granting access to only authorized personnel. Auditing account disabling actions will ...Rule Medium Severity -
For the local account of last resort, the Cisco ISE must automatically audit account removal actions.
Account management, as a whole, ensures access to the network device is being controlled in a secure manner by granting access to only authorized personnel. Auditing account removal actions will su...Rule Medium Severity -
The Cisco ISE must automatically audit account enabling actions.
Once an attacker establishes initial access to a system, the attacker often attempts to create a persistent method of reestablishing access. One way to accomplish this is for the attacker to simply...Rule Low Severity -
The Cisco ISE must be configured with only one local web-based account to be used as the account of last resort in the event the authentication server is unavailable.
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 when the authentication server i...Rule Medium Severity -
The Cisco ISE must audit the execution of privileged functions.
Misuse of privileged functions, either intentionally or unintentionally by authorized users, or by unauthorized external entities that have compromised information system accounts, is a serious and...Rule Medium Severity -
The Cisco ISE must protect against an individual (or process acting on behalf of an individual) falsely denying having performed organization-defined actions to be covered by non-repudiation.
This requirement supports non-repudiation of actions taken by an administrator and is required in order to maintain the integrity of the configuration management process. All configuration changes ...Rule Medium Severity -
The Cisco ISE must generate audit records when successful attempts to access privileges occur.
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 Cisco ISE must generate audit records when successful attempts to modify administrator privileges occur.
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 Cisco ISE must generate audit records when successful attempts to delete administrator privileges occur.
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 Cisco ISE must generate audit records when successful logon attempts occur.
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 Cisco ISE must generate audit records for privileged activities or other system-level access.
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 Cisco ISE must generate audit records when concurrent logons from different workstations occur.
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 Cisco ISE must limit audit record storage capacity for all locally stored logs.
In order to ensure network devices have a sufficient storage capacity in which to write the audit logs, they need to be able to allocate audit record storage capacity. The task of allocating audit ...Rule Medium Severity -
The Cisco ISE must configure a remote syslog where audit records are stored on a centralized logging target that is different from the system being audited.
Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Storing audit logs to a different system than that being audited is a common process in informa...Rule Medium Severity -
The Cisco ISE must send an alarm to one or more individuals when the monitoring collector process has an error or failure.
It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required. Without an alert, security personnel may be unaware of an impending fai...Rule Medium Severity -
The Cisco ISE must be configured to synchronize internal information system clocks 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 Medium Severity -
The Cisco ISE must enforce access restrictions associated with changes to the firmware, OS, and hardware components.
Changes to the hardware or software components of the network device can have significant effects on the overall security of the network. Therefore, only qualified and authorized individuals should...Rule Medium Severity -
The Cisco ISE must be running an operating system release that is currently supported by the vendor.
Network devices running an unsupported operating system lack current security fixes required to mitigate the risks associated with recent vulnerabilities. The recommended best practice is for the ...Rule Medium Severity -
The Cisco ISE must generate log records for a locally developed list of auditable events.
Logging the actions of specific events provides a means to investigate an attack; to recognize resource utilization or capacity thresholds; or to identify an improperly configured network device. I...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.
