The VMM must implement cryptographic mechanisms to prevent unauthorized modification of all information at rest on all VMM components.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion>VMMs handling data requiring "data at rest" protections must employ cryptographic mechanisms to prevent unauthorized modification of the information at rest. Selection of a cryptographic mechanism is based on the need to protect the integrity of organizational information. The strength of the mechanism is commensurate with the security category and/or classification of the information.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
