  • For accounts using password authentication, the Cisco ISE must use FIPS-validated SHA-2 or later protocol to protect the integrity of the password authentication process.

    <VulnDiscussion>Passwords need to be protected at all times, and encryption is the standard method for protecting passwords. If passwords are...

  • The Cisco ISE must use FIPS-validated SHA-2 (or greater) to protect the integrity of hash message authentication code (HMAC), Key Derivation Functions (KDFs), Random Bit Generation, and hash-only applications.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Without cryptographic integrity protections, information can be altered by unauthorized users without detection. Nonlocal ma...
