Cisco ISE NDM Security Technical Implementation Guide

Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • SRG-APP-000516-NDM-000336

    Group
  • The Cisco ISE must be configured to use an external authentication server to authenticate administrators prior to granting administrative access.

    Centralized management of authentication settings increases the security of remote and nonlocal access methods. This control is particularly important protection against the insider threat. With ro...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000516-NDM-000351

    Group
  • SRG-APP-000516-NDM-000341

    Group
  • The Cisco ISE must conduct configuration and operational backups when changes are made or must schedule backups weekly, at a minimum.

    If this information is not backed up and a system failure was to occur, the security settings would be difficult to reconfigure quickly and accurately, thus increasing adverse impact of the outage....
    Rule Low Severity
  • SRG-APP-000516-NDM-000344

    Group
  • The Cisco ISE must use DoD-approved PKI rather than proprietary or self-signed device certificates.

    To mitigate the risk of unauthorized access to sensitive information by entities that have been issued certificates by DoD-approved PKIs. The Cisco ISE generates a key-pair and a CSR. The CSR is s...
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000142-NDM-000245

    Group
  • The Cisco ISE must be configured to prohibit the use of all unnecessary and/or nonsecure functions, ports, protocols, and/or services.

    Changes to any software components of the network device can have significant effects on the overall security of the network. Therefore, only qualified and authorized individuals should be allowed ...
    Rule High Severity
  • SRG-APP-000142-NDM-000245

    Group
  • The Cisco ISE must be configured to disable Wireless Setup for production systems.

    ISE Wireless Setup is beta software so is not authorized for use in DoD. Wireless Setup is disabled by default after fresh installation of Cisco ISE. If you upgrade ISE from a previous version, th...
    Rule High Severity
  • SRG-APP-000156-NDM-000250

    Group
  • SRG-APP-000400-NDM-000313

    Group
  • SRG-APP-000179-NDM-000265

    Group
  • SRG-APP-000412-NDM-000331

    Group
  • The Cisco ISE must be configured to implement cryptographic mechanisms using a FIPS 140-2 validated algorithm to protect the confidentiality of remote maintenance sessions.

    This requires the use of secure protocols instead of their unsecured counterparts, such as SSH instead of telnet, SCP instead of FTP, and HTTPS instead of HTTP. If unsecured protocols (lacking cryp...

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.
