  • The Central Log Server must be configured to enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one numeric character be used.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Use of a complex password helps to increase the time and resources required to compromise the password. Password complexity, ...

  • The Central Log Server must be configured to protect the data sent from hosts and devices from being altered in a way that may prevent the attribution of an action to an individual (or process acting on behalf of an individual).

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Without non-repudiation, it is impossible to positively attribute an action to an individual (or process acting on behalf of ...

  • Time stamps recorded on the log records in the Central Log Server must be configured to synchronize to within one second of the host server or, if NTP is configured directly in the log server, the NTP time source must be the same as the host and devices within its scope of coverage.

  • Where multiple log servers are installed in the enclave, each log server must be configured to aggregate log records to a central aggregation server or other consolidated events repository.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Log servers (e.g., syslog servers) are often used on network segments to consolidate from the devices and hosts on that netwo...

  • The Central Log Server log records must be configured to use the syslog protocol or another industry standard format (e.g., Windows event protocol) that can be used by typical analysis tools.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Without a standardized format for log records, the ability to perform forensic analysis may be more difficult. Standardizatio...

  • The Central Log Server must be configured to retain the DoD-defined attributes of the log records sent by the devices and hosts.

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.
