Network Device Management Security Requirements Guide

Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • SRG-APP-000065

    Group
  • The network device must be configured to enforce the limit of three consecutive invalid logon attempts, after which time it must block any login attempt for 15 minutes.

    By limiting the number of failed login attempts, the risk of unauthorized system access via user password guessing, otherwise known as brute-forcing, is reduced.
    Rule Medium Severity
  • SRG-APP-000068

    Group
  • The network device must display the Standard Mandatory DoD Notice and Consent Banner before granting access to the device.

    Display of the DoD-approved use notification before granting access to the network device ensures privacy and security notification verbiage used is consistent with applicable federal laws, Executi...

  • SRG-APP-000091

    Group
  • The network device must generate audit records when successful/unsuccessful attempts to access privileges occur.

    Without generating audit records that are specific to the security and mission needs of the organization, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an in...

  • SRG-APP-000092

    Group
  • The network device must initiate session auditing upon startup.

    If auditing is enabled late in the startup process, the actions of some start-up processes may not be audited. Some audit systems also maintain state information only available if auditing is enabl...

    Group
  • SRG-APP-000097

    Group
  • The network device must produce audit records containing information to establish where the events occurred.

    In order to compile an accurate risk assessment and provide forensic analysis, it is essential for security personnel to know where events occurred, such as device hardware components, device softw...

  • SRG-APP-000098

    Group
  • SRG-APP-000099

    Group
  • The network device must produce audit records that contain information to establish the outcome of the event.

    Without information about the outcome of events, security personnel cannot make an accurate assessment as to whether an attack was successful or if changes were made to the security state of the sy...

  • SRG-APP-000100

    Group
  • The network device must generate audit records containing information that establishes the identity of any individual or process associated with the event.
