The ISEC7 SPHERE must accept Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credentials.
<VulnDiscussion>The use of PIV credentials facilitates standardization and reduces the risk of unauthorized access. DOD has mandated the use...Rule Low Severity -

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
Before establishing a local, remote, and/or network connection with any endpoint device, the ISEC7 SPHERE must use a bidirectional authentication mechanism configured with a FIPS-validated Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) cipher block algorithm to authenticate with the device.
<VulnDiscussion>Without device-to-device authentication, communications with malicious devices may be established. Bidirectional authenticati...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000427
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The ISEC7 SPHERE must allow the use of DOD PKI established certificate authorities for verification of the establishment of protected sessions.
<VulnDiscussion>Untrusted Certificate Authorities (CA) can issue certificates, but they may be issued by organizations or individuals that se...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000439
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The ISEC7 SPHERE must protect the confidentiality and integrity of transmitted information during preparation for transmission and during reception using cryptographic mechanisms.
<VulnDiscussion>Without protection of the transmitted information, confidentiality and integrity may be compromised since unprotected communi...Rule Medium Severity -

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The ISEC7 SPHERE must be configured to leverage the enterprise directory service accounts and groups for ISEC7 SPHERE server admin identification and authentication.
<VulnDiscussion>A comprehensive account management process that includes automation helps to ensure the accounts designated as requiring atte...Rule Medium Severity -

<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The ISEC7 SPHERE must configure the timeout for the console to be 15 minutes or less.
<VulnDiscussion>A session time-out lock is a temporary action taken when a user (MDM system administrator) stops work and moves away from the...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000516
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The ISEC7 SPHERE, Tomcat installation, and ISEC7 Suite monitor must be configured to use the Windows Trust Store for the storage of digital certificates and keys.
<VulnDiscussion>A trust store provides requisite encryption and access control to protect digital certificates from unauthorized access.</...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000585
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
If cipher suites using pre-shared keys are used for device authentication, the ISEC7 SPHERE must have a minimum security strength of 112 bits or higher, must only be used in networks where both the client and server are government systems, must prohibit client negotiation to TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0, SSL 2.0, or SSL 3.0 and must prohibit or restrict the use of protocols that transmit unencrypted authentication information or use flawed cryptographic algorithm for transmission.
<VulnDiscussion>Pre-shared keys are symmetric keys that are already in place prior to the initiation of a Transport Layer Security (TLS) sess...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000610
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The ISEC7 SPHERE must use FIPS-validated SHA-2 or higher hash function for digital signature generation and verification (nonlegacy use).
<VulnDiscussion>Without cryptographic integrity protections, information can be altered by unauthorized users without detection. To protect ...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.
