Symantec ProxySG providing user authentication intermediary services must conform to Federal Identity, Credential, and Access Management (FICAM)-issued profiles.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion>Without conforming to FICAM-issued profiles, the information system may not be interoperable with FICAM-authentication protocols, such as SAML 2.0 and OpenID 2.0. Use of FICAM-issued profiles addresses open identity management standards. This only applies to components where this is specific to the function of the device or has the concept of a nonorganizational user (e.g., ALG capability that is the front end for an application in a DMZ).</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
