An XCCDF Rule

Description

<VulnDiscussion>Only authorized personnel should be aware of errors and the details of the errors. Error messages are an indicator of an organization's operational state. Additionally, sensitive account information must not be revealed through error messages to unauthorized personnel or their designated representatives. The DBN-6300 will reveal error messages only to authorized individuals (ISSO, ISSM, and SA). Only privileged users have visibility into any error messages. The audit log requires authorized users to log on to obtain visibility. With the DBN-6300, audit records are automatically backed up on a real-time basis via syslog when enabled.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
