<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
The SAN is not configured to use FIPS 140-1/2 validated encryption algorithm to protect management-to-fabric communications.
Low Severity
<VulnDiscussion>The communication between the SAN management consol and the SAN fabric carries sensitive privileged configuration data. This data's confidentiality will be protected with FIPS 140-1/2 validate algorithm for encryption. Configuration data could be used to create a denial of service by disrupting the SAN fabric. The storage administrator will configure the SAN to use FIPS 140-1/2 validated encryption algorithm to protect management-to-fabric communications.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility>Other</Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
