An XCCDF Rule

Remediation - Manual Procedure

Log on to the HYCU Web UI and generate a CSR within the gear menu and "SSL Certificates" menu.
 
Submit this CSR to a DoD PKI authority to have a new certificate created. 

Note: By default, HYCU is configured with a self-signed certificate, but this can be replaced with a DoD-issued certificate. This certificate can be configured by logging on to the HYCU Web UI, going to the gear menu and "SSL Certificates" menu, and importing the DoD-issued certificate.
