  • The TPS must provide audit record generation capability for events where communication traffic is blocked or restricted based on policy filters, rules, signatures, and anomaly analysis.

    <VulnDiscussion>To support the centralized analysis capability, the IDPS components must be able to provide the information in a format (e.g....

  • In the event of a logging failure caused by the lack of audit record storage capacity, the SMS must continue generating and storing audit records, overwriting the oldest audit records in a first-in-first-out manner using Audit Log maintenance.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;It is critical that when the TPS is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required, it takes action to mitigate the fai...

  • The SMS and TPS must provide log information in a format that can be extracted and used by centralized analysis tools.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Centralized review and analysis of log records from multiple SMS and TPS components gives the organization the capability to ...

  • The SMS must be configured to remove or disable nonessential capabilities on SMS and TPS, which are not required for operation or not related to IDPS functionality.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;An IDPS can be capable of providing a wide variety of capabilities. Not all of these capabilities are necessary. Unnecessary ...

  • The TPS must fail to a secure state which maintains access control mechanisms when the IDPS hardware, software, or firmware fails on initialization/shutdown or experiences a sudden abort during normal operation (also known as "Fail closed").

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.
