An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion>The Solidcore client can be configured locally at the CLI, but only when accessed with the required password. Since the Trellix Application Control configuration is to be managed by ePO policies, allowing enablement of the CLI to would introduce the capability of local configuration changes. Strict management of the accessibility of the CLI is necessary in order to prevent its misuse. The misuse of the CLI would open the system up to the possible configuration changes potentially allowing malicious applications to execute unknowingly.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
