MarkLogic Server v9 Security Technical Implementation Guide

Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • MarkLogic Server must generate audit records when unsuccessful attempts to delete categories of information (e.g., classification levels/security levels) occur.

    Changes in categories of information must be tracked. Without an audit trail, unauthorized access to protected data could go undetected. To aid in diagnosis, it is necessary to keep track of faile...

  • SRG-APP-000503-DB-000350

    Group
  • MarkLogic Server must generate audit records when successful logons or connections occur.

    For completeness of forensic analysis, it is necessary to track who/what (a user or other principal) logs on to the DBMS.

  • MarkLogic Server must generate audit records when unsuccessful logons or connection attempts occur.

    For completeness of forensic analysis, it is necessary to track failed attempts to log on to the DBMS. While positive identification may not be possible in a case of failed authentication, as much ...

    Group
  • MarkLogic Server must generate audit records when concurrent logons/connections by the same user from different workstations occur.

    For completeness of forensic analysis, it is necessary to track who logs on to the DBMS. Concurrent connections by the same user from multiple workstations may be valid uses of the system, such co...

  • SRG-APP-000507-DB-000356

    Group
  • MarkLogic must be able to generate audit records when successful accesses to objects occur.

    Without tracking all or selected types of access to all or selected objects (tables, views, procedures, functions, etc.), it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events r...

  • SRG-APP-000514-DB-000382

    Group
  • MarkLogic Server must implement NIST FIPS 140-2 or 140-3 validated cryptographic modules to generate and validate cryptographic hashes.

    Use of weak or untested encryption algorithms undermines the purposes of utilizing encryption to protect data. The application must implement cryptographic modules adhering to the higher standards ...

    Group
  • SRG-APP-000515-DB-000318

    Group
  • MarkLogic Server must off-load audit data to a separate log management facility; this must be continuous and in near real time for systems with a network connection to the storage facility and weekly or more often for stand-alone systems.

    Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Off-loading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity. T...
    Rule Low Severity
  • SRG-APP-000516-DB-000363

    Group
  • MarkLogic Server must be configured in accordance with the security configuration settings based on DoD security configuration and implementation guidance, including STIGs, NSA configuration guides, CTOs, DTMs, and IAVMs.

    Configuring the DBMS to implement organization-wide security implementation guides and security checklists ensures compliance with federal standards and establishes a common security baseline acros...

  • SRG-APP-000456-DB-000400

    Group
  • MarkLogic Server must be a version supported by the vendor.

    Unsupported commercial and database systems should not be used because fixes to newly identified bugs will not be implemented by the vendor. The lack of support can result in potential vulnerabilit...

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.
