The Ivanti EPMM server must be configured to implement FIPS 140-2 mode for all server and agent encryption.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

<VulnDiscussion>Without confidentiality protection mechanisms, unauthorized individuals may gain access to sensitive information via a remote access session. Remote access is access to DoD non-public information systems by an authorized user (or an information system) communicating through an external, non-organization-controlled network. A block cipher mode is an algorithm that features the use of a symmetric key block cipher algorithm to provide an information service, such as confidentiality or authentication. AES is the FIPS-validated cipher block cryptographic algorithm approved for use in DoD. For an algorithm implementation to be listed on a FIPS 140-2 cryptographic module validation certificate as an approved security function, the algorithm implementation must meet all the requirements of FIPS 140-2 and must successfully complete the cryptographic algorithm validation process. Currently, NIST has approved the following confidentiality modes to be used with approved block ciphers in a series of special publications: ECB, CBC, OFB, CFB, CTR, XTS-AES, FF1, FF3, CCM, GCM, KW, KWP, and TKW.

Remediation - Manual Procedure

Configure the MDM server to use a FIPS 140-2 validated cryptographic module.

On the MDM console, do the following:
1. SSH to MobileIron Core Server from any SSH client.
2. Enter the administrator credentials you set when you installed MobileIron Core.
3. Enter enable.
