Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • SRG-OS-000329

    Group
  • Tanium must automatically lock accounts and require them be unlocked by an administrator when three unsuccessful login attempts in 15 minutes are exceeded.

    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. Limits are imposed by locking the a...

  • SRG-OS-000342

    Group
  • The Tanium operating system (TanOS) must provide an immediate real-time alert to the SA and ISSO, at a minimum, of all audit failure events requiring real-time alerts.

    It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required. Without a real-time alert, security personnel may be unaware of an impe...
